Compared to last Thursday both the feeder and slaughter markets were stronger with an average quality offering. Good quality feeder steers 450-600 lbs were 2.00 to 4.00 higher with a good supply, while the 600-650 lbs steers were sharply higher with strong demand. Yearling steers appeared higher, however there were limited comparisons. The feeder heifers were mostly 3.00 to 6.00 higher, except for the 350-500 lbs heifers who were sharply higher with a good supply and strong demand. Slaughter cows were 1.00 to 3.00 higher with a good supply and slaughter bulls were steady to 2.00 higher with good demand.

31 sales

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.
