As filed

Compared to last week, Feeder steers sold $15.00-$20.00 higher, while heifers sold $10.00-$15.00 higher. The supply of feeders was moderate, while demand was good. There was a big turnout for the replacement cow sale, but it was interrupted by some very damaging tornados passing through the area on Friday night. Our thoughts and Prayers our with all those who have been effected by the storms.

26 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $421.86, low $357.61, median $399.62 across 26 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
