Compared to last week: Limited comparison of feeder cattle. Few feeder steers under 800 lbs sold 5.00 lower; over 800 lbs 6.00-8.00 higher. Feeder heifers under 700 lbs steady to 3.00 lower; over 700 lbs 4.00-8.00 higher. Demand moderate to good for feeder cattle. Steer calves sold steady to lower in a light test. Heifer calves 4.00-8.00 lower. October is here and much of the calf supply was un-weaned. The spread between one right off the cow and a 45 day weaned one is beginning to get wider, unless they are of high quality and or have multiple rounds of shots. Quality average to attractive.
