Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to two weeks ago, few good comparisons with mostly small packages of calves that were not weaned and no shots. One load of feeder heifers that weighed 731 lbs and sold for 348.00 marked fleshy had no comparison from 2 weeks ago. Slaughter cows and bulls sold mostly steady.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $510.74, low $431.11, median $482.94 across 27 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
