Trade activity and demand was moderate. Boner slaughter cows of average dressing sold 1.00 less and lean cows sold 4.00 less. Slaughter bulls of average dressing were too light for an accurate trend. The replacement sale will be this Saturday October 31, 2026 and the next slaughter cow sale will be next Thursday November 5, 2026.
