As filed

Compared to the last special two weeks ago, a very light offering of steer calves under 550 lbs sold with a firm to higher undertone, 550-650 lbs sold steady to spots 3.00 higher, 650-700 lb and 750-800 lbs sold fully steady, with 700-750 lbs selling steady to 4.00 lower. yearling steers over 800 lbs were not well tested. Feeder heifers sold mostly steady on comparable sales. Slaughter cows traded steady to firm, with a nice offering of high dressing slaughter bulls selling with very good demand and much higher than slaughter cattle.

22 sales

Steers 0–100 lb: high $259.77, low $224.09, median $243.68 across 22 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
