Compared to last week: Feeder steers under 650 lbs 2.00 to 5.00 lower, over 650 lbs 5.00 to 10.00 lower. Feeder heifers 2.00 to 7.00 lower. Demand was very uneven this week as the futures contracts were under extreme pressure again. Best demand remains for those light cattle to make yearlings of, as buyers of these cattle have more options to market them at different time periods compared to those bound for finishing yards. More weaned calves in the offering this week, these cattle are highly sought after if they are in light enough flesh condition. It's been tough to keep weaned cattle green as the lack of winter weather has made it very easy for calves to put on some flesh. Temps right up around 60 degrees, cooler this coming week but still above average.
