As filed

Compared to the last special two weeks ago, (last week was a Special Bred Cow Sale)- the best test on steer calves weighed 500-700 lbs and sold firm to 5.00 higher, with 700-750 lbs selling steady to firm. Feeder heifers weighing 450-700 lbs sold 5.00-10.00 higher with yearling heifers over 700 lbs trading with a higher undertone. Slaughter cows continued on and active market selling 3.00-6.00 higher. Demand was good on a moderate supply with two pot loads of top quality yearling heifers weighing 850-918 lbs selling with a good demand along with steer and heifer calves weighing mostly 500-650 lbs.

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.
