As filed

Friday's auction had very light receipts of feeder cattle selling mostly in small packages and singles for any comparisons. A nice offering of slaughter cows sold fully steady to firm with slaughter steers and heifers steady to 2.00 lower.

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.
