Compared to last week, breaking type slaughter cows were steady to 1.00 higher, while boning type slaughter cows were 3.00 to 4.00 lower; there were too few slaughter bulls collected to establish an adequate market comparison. Feeder cattle were mostly steady to 7.00 higher. Demand was moderate to good; market activity and buyer interest were moderate to active. Offerings of cattle were mostly moderate. Cattle quality was average to attractive.

30 sales

Bulls 0–100 lb: high $216.84, low $174.89, median $202.53 across 30 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
