As filed

Compared to last week, a very light offering this week was lightly tested with a few groups and packages of steer and heifer calves under 500 lbs sold with a firm to higher undertone. Demand was good on a light supply. Slaughter cows on a large offering sold fully steady to firm, spots 3.00 higher on the high dressing cows.

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.
