Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, a very light test of feeder cattle were not well tested with offerings selling mostly as singles and small packages. Slaughter cows sold steady to firm. Demand was light to moderate on calves with 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.
