As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers under 550 lbs steady to 3.00 lower, over 550 lbs steady to firm. Feeder heifers steady to 3.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady to 1.00 lower. Demand good. Supply moderate. Several nice quality medium flesh calves this week weighing 400-600 lbs with some weaned and some not. The feeder market held together pretty well despite a poor showing by the cattle complex overall with fed cattle, cutout values and fed futures all lower and feeder contracts sharply lower on Tuesday. Packers have been able to back down the fed trade the past few weeks with help from the usual steep June live contract discount which may or may not be warranted this year.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Bulls	—	Average	1,642	115.17	1,891	7thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,456	96.69	1,408	18

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.
