As filed

Friday's auction was a Special Bred Cow and Pairs sale with a very light offering of feeder cattle that were not well tested. Most of the feeders were calves selling off the cows sold earlier in the day and sold in small packages or singles. A nice consignment of black bred heifers to calf in the fall sold with moderate to good demand along with a good offering of young bred cows 4-6 yrs of age sold with good demand.

One grade step is worth $6.93/cwt here — about $59 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 0–100 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

15 sales

Heifers 0–100 lb: high $262.69, low $223.56, median $246.96 across 15 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
