Compared to last Thursday: Feeder steers traded 6.00-8.00 lower. Feeder heifers sold 8.00-10.00 higher. The demand for the lightweight male calves was much lower with the 500 and 600 lb. calves selling better than last week. Feeder heifers rebounded to the prices seen two weeks ago. Slaughter cows sold steady to 2.00 lower and slaughter bulls were 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.
