Compared to last Saturday the feeder market was mostly steady on an average quality offering. Today the average feeder cattle prices ranged from 4.00 higher to 4.00 lower as calf quality and dollars per head squeezed the price premiums buyers were willing to pay today. There was a good supply of new crop calves and buyers were active and premiums were seen in spots. Slaughter cows were steady to 2.00 higher with a good supply and slaughter bulls were 4.00 to 5.00 higher with good demand.

30 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $432.00, low $342.05, median $396.70 across 30 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
