As filed

Compared to last Saturday the feeder market was stronger with a good quality offering. Light weight steers 300 lbs and under appeared sharply higher and with strong demand, while the 400-600 lbs steers were steady to 4.00 higher or greater in spots with a good supply and good demand for weaned packages and groups. Yearling steers appeared stronger as well, but with limited head to head comparisons. Feeder heifers were steady to 4.00 higher with a good supply and strong demand for weaned and value added heifers. Slaughter cows were mostly steady with a good supply and good demand, however there was increased interest noted and premiums paid for younger looking leans to return to farm. Slaughter bulls were steady with a good supply and good demand.

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.
