As filed

Compared to last report feeder steers sold sharply higher, with feeder heifer selling unevenly steady, on calves and yearlings. With slaughter cows selling 3.00 to 7.00 higher on a light test, while bulls sold with too few comparable sales to trend. With sheep and goats selling with too few comparable sales to test.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $483.07, low $384.43, median $425.31 across 21 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
