Compared to last Thursday the feeder market was mostly stronger with an average quality offering. Good quality feeder steers 300-700 lbs were 3.00 to 8.00 higher or greater and with a good supply, while yearling steers were steady to 3.00 higher with good demand. Feeder heifers 400 lbs and under were 6.00 to 10.00 higher, while the 450-600 lbs heifers were steady to 5.00 higher and with good demand. However, the 600-700 lbs heifers were 1.00 to 3.00 lower. Feeder buyers were active and willing to pay premiums for quality, however they were quick to discount heavy conditioned, horned, and off colored calves. Slaughter cows were 2.00 to 4.00 higher with a good supply and slaughter bulls were 1.00 to 3.00 higher with good demand.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $446.90, low $346.97, median $412.36 across 31 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
