As filed

Compared to last Thursday: Feeder steers traded unevenly steady. Feeder heifers sold sharply lower. The demand remained good for steers but it was much lower for the heifers. The majority of the heifers in today's offering that were unweaned which contributed to the lower demand. Slaughter cows sold 3.00-5.00 higher and slaughter bulls were mostly steady.

30 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $426.46, low $339.50, median $394.72 across 30 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
