Compared to last week, too few feeder steers and heifers for a market test. Slaughter cows steady. All of the calves offered as singles or in small packages. Demand moderate and supply light.

Heifers 0–100 lb: high $262.69, low $218.12, median $248.48 across 13 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
