Compared to last week, a very light run of feeders were lightly tested, with several small consignments of replacement cows in the offering. A nice offering of slaughter steers and heifers sold steady with last week as did the slaughter cows.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $499.75, low $386.78, median $452.89 across 26 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
