Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers generally 4.00 to 5.00 higher. Very good demand for steers and heifers this week as the weather moderated and allowed cattle producers to get their stock shipped to town where there were ample buyers on the seats ready to buy them. There were many replacement quality heifers offered and the market was very active as there is much optimism as the CME Feeder Cattle futures contracts are very attractive for the coming months. The market was very active on light fleshed, light weight steers and heifers that will run as yearlings on this summer's grass as the grazing outlook is more favorable than the last few years.
