Compared to the last special two weeks ago, steer calves weighing 400-600 lbs sold mostly 5.00-10.00 higher with 600-700 lbs trading 4.00-7.00 higher and five pot loads of 815-1025 lb steers selling with a sharply higher undertone. Feeder heifers had the best test on 600-700 lbs selling 5.00-8.00 higher with all other weights trading with a higher undertone on few good comparable sales. Demand was good on a moderate supply with nine pot loads of top quality yearling steers and heifers all selling with good demand along with a nice quality offering of calves weighing mostly 450-650 lbs. Slaughter cows sold firm to 3.00 higher. Cattle on Feed Report was released Friday afternoon with On Feed at 101.2 percent; Placements at 97.9 percent and Marketings at 102.4 percent.

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.
