Compared to last most lots of steer calves under 700 lbs sold 10.00 to 15.00 higher, yearling weight steers sold 6.00 to 10.00 lower on most weights on a light test. Heifer calves sold 6.00 to 10.00 higher, over 800 lbs sold 3.00 to 6.00 higher. Slaughter cows sold steady to 4.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold 3.00 lower. Lean cows were sought after by packers to be placed on feed. With the Christmas and New Year holiday around the corner. Sale receipts will be very light and the packer will need cows to fill their kill and these cows in the feedlot will do that.

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.
Source: USDA AMS, as filed — nothing recomputed and nothing rounded. This summary aggregates the same sales the Wyoming barn reports cover, so it must never be added to a state total built from those barns.
