Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, mostly calves this week weighing 425-650 lbs selling in small packages and groups with many bull calves and heifers unweaned with few good comparable sales on any weight range of calves and with yearlings scarce. Demand and supply was moderate. Good offering of slaughter cattle and slaughter cows with slaughter cows selling firm to 2.00 higher.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

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.
