Feeder heifers weighing 500-550 lbs sold 2.00-6.00 higher with 550-750 lbs trading 5.00-10.00 higher, spots 12.00 higher on the 6 weight heifers. Demand was very good with supply moderate. Overall quality was very good on steers and heifers weighing 500-750 lbs and yearling steers over 800 lbs all sold on a very active market. Corn closed 16-19 cents lower on Friday with Feeder Cattle contracts closing with sharp triple-digit gains. Cattle on Feed report was friendly with Cattle on Feed at 100.2.

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.
