As filed

Compared to last week, a very light offering of feeder cattle this week, a few light heifers weighing under 500 lbs sold mostly steady with all other weights of steers and heifers too lightly tested for any comparisons. A large offering of slaughter cows sold fully steady to firm with last week with several high dressing bulls selling higher than most fat cattle on Friday's auction. Demand was moderate on the light run of feeders with good demand on the slaughter cattle.

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.
