As filed

Compared to last Wednesday: Feeder steers sold 7.00-9.00 lower and feeder heifers were 9.00-10.00 lower. With the futures market very unsettled and other events happening this week in the cattle industry the feeder buyers backed up on their prices and were more selective on their purchases. Today's offering contained more unweaned and over conditioned calves than previous weeks and the demand for them was very low. Slaughter cows and bulls traded mostly steady.

31 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $469.65, low $340.68, median $415.33 across 31 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
