Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Trade activity and demand was good. Starting to see a few more weaned calves. Feeder steers traded mostly 6.00 to 15.00 higher from the previous week, with some sharply higher. This was largely due to some larger lots of high quality pre-conditioned calves. Feeder heifers traded mostly steady to 3.00 lower. Next available report will be Friday, November 6, 2026.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
