Compared to two weeks ago, quality was good with high demand for feeder heifers and steers. Trends for feeder steers were 5.00 to 15.00 higher with heifers being 2.00 to 8.00 higher and no comparisons on feeder bulls due to limited comparable receipts. Slaughter classes were significantly higher with bulls 6.00 to 7.00 higher, and all slaughter cow classes 12.00 to 20.00 higher.
