Compared to last Thursday feeder steers sold 1.00 to 3.00 higher. Feeder heifers sold 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Fleshy short weaned calves facing some discounts while buyers prefer long weaned pre-conditioned calves more suitable for grass. There was good to very good demand for feeder classes. Slaughter cows and bulls sold 5.00 to 8.00 higher. There was good demand for slaughter classes.

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.
