Compared to last Saturday the feeder market was mixed with a plainer than average quality offering. Good quality feeder steers 400 lbs and under were 8.00 to 10.00 lower with a limited supply, while the 450-550 lbs steers were 4.00 to 10.00 higher with good demand. Yearling steers appeared stronger with a large supply, but limited head to head comparisons. Feeder heifers 400 lbs and under were sharply lower, while the 450-700 lbs heifers were steady to 5.00 higher with a good supply and good demand. Buyers were active today, however a plainer quality offering fueled a softer undertone and limited premiums paid in several weight classes. Slaughter cows were 2.00 to 4.00 higher with a good supply and slaughter bulls were steady to 2.00 higher with good demand.

28 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $511.01, low $375.39, median $462.82 across 28 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
