Compared to last Saturday both the feeder and slaughter markets were stronger with an average quality offering. Feeder steers were mostly 2.00 to 6.00 higher or greater in spots with a good supply, while the yearlings appeared sharply higher but with limited comparisons. Feeder heifers 550 lbs and under were 5.00 to 10.00 higher with a good supply and strong demand. Slaughter cows were 3.00 to 5.00 higher with a good supply and slaughter bulls were sharply higher with strong 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.
