Compared to last Saturday the feeder market was stronger with a good quality offering. Light weight steers 400 lbs and under were sharply higher with strong demand, while the 450-650 lbs steers were mostly steady with a good supply. Yearling steers appeared steady but with limited comparisons. Feeder heifer were 2.00 to 6.00 higher or greater in spots with a good supply and strong demand. Slaughter cows were steady to 2.00 higher with a good supply and slaughter bulls were steady 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.
