Compared to the last auction two weeks ago, feeder steers weighing 400-600 lbs sold firm to 5.00 higher, with 600-750 lbs selling steady to firm and three pot loads of 870-890 lb steers were not tested but sold with a steady to firm undertone. Feeder heifers under 600 lbs sold steady to firm, spots 5.00 higher on the 4 weight heifers, over 600 lbs were not well tested but traded with a steady to firm undertone. Demand was good on all classes of feeder cattle with a stick out sale of a pot load of 728 lb steers selling at 280.50. Slaughter cows sold 2.00-4.00 lower.

Steers 0–100 lb: high $258.28, low $216.82, median $243.28 across 11 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

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.
