Compared to the last auction two weeks ago, steer and heifer calves under 600 lbs on comparable sales sold mostly 10.00-15.00 higher with feeders over 600 lbs not well tested on limited offerings with the largest draft of the sale being 190 hd of heifers weighing 973-1077 lbs selling with a firm to higher undertone. Demand was good on a light to moderate offering with the stick out sale of the day being 100 hd of heifers weighing 973 lbs at 304.00 and 90 hd weighing 1077 lbs at 294.00. There were several consignments of unweaned steer and heifer calves all selling with good demand. Slaughter steers and heifers sold 5.00-6.00 higher and slaughter cows sold steady.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $439.62, low $343.18, median $399.14 across 30 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
