As filed

Compared to last Thursday the feeder market was stronger with a good quality offering. Light weight feeder steers 450 lbs and under were sharply higher with strong demand, while the 500-700 lbs steers were steady to 2.00 higher with a good supply. Yearling steers appeared steady but with limited comparisons. Feeder heifers 350 lbs and under were sharply higher, while heifers over 450 lbs were mostly 2.00 to 4.00 higher, except for the 600 lbs weaned and value added groups that were sharply higher. Slaughter cows and bulls were steady with a large supply and 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.
