Compared to last Thursday: Feeder steers and heifers sold steady to 2.00 lower. The demand for all classes of feeder cattle was lower and the quality of today's offering wasn't as good as in the previous weeks. Slaughter cows and bulls traded mostly steady.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $420.49, low $314.93, median $390.68 across 33 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
