Due to a lack of comparable receipts, trends could not be established. Feeder Heifers & Feeder Bulls tended to sell with a higher undertone while Feeder Steers & Slaughter Cattle tended to sell with a steady to softer undertone. Quality fair to good, Demand good.

28 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $501.85, low $374.23, median $428.03 across 28 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
