Compared to last week: Feeder steers sold mostly 1.00-3.00 higher. Feeder heifers unevenly steady. Steer and heifer calves mostly steady on limited comparable receipts. Demand moderate. Quality plain to average. Buyers remain wary of buying short-weaned or unweaned calves as the fall weather remains volatile. Warmer weather is expected this week, but cooler weather will make its way across the trade area over the weekend.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.

Feeder Cattle — prices, barns, and planning

Fed Cattle — the cash market and what quality pays

Beef & Retail — from the box to the grocery shelf

Feed & Hay — the cost side, cash not futures
