Compared to last week: A light run of feeder cattle today, yearling feeder steers not well compared, yearling feeder heifers sold with lower undertones. Spring born calves not well tested. Moderate to good demand for yearlings, better demand seen for steers than for heifers. Flesh condition was uneven as there were some yearlings off grass in very light flesh, while there were many more out of backgrounding yards carrying a moderate plus to heavy condition. The yearling market was active on the greener cattle, less active on those heifers carrying too much flesh.
