As filed

Compared to last Monday the feeder market was SHARPLY HIGHER. Feeder steers were 8.00 to 10.00 higher and had some premiums greater than 15.00 dollars for weaned calves. Feeder heifers and bulls also rallied and were up sharply through the weight classes, with strong demand for good quality cattle, while off colored and plainer animals received heavy discounts. Slaughter cows were mostly steady to 2.00 higher for the leans and slaughter bulls were steady with a good supply and good demand.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age
