Compared to last week, breaking type slaughter cows were 4.00 to 5.00 higher and boning type slaughter cows were 2.00 to 3.00 higher; there were too few comparable slaughter bulls the previous sale to establish an adequate market comparison. Feeder cattle were mostly 2.00 to 8.00 higher. Demand was moderate to good; market activity and buyer interest were moderate to active. Offerings of cattle were moderate. Cattle quality was mostly average. Holstein baby calves ranged 10.00 to 25.00 per head.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Replacement cattle Per head
