As filed

Friday's sale had a very light offering of steer and heifer calves weighing mostly under 600 lbs selling mostly in small packages and singles but selling mostly steady within last week's ranges of similar quality and weights. Slaughter steers and heifers sold near steady with slaughter cows trading steady.

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.
