As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers under 600 lbs 5.00-15.00 higher, few over 600 lbs steady to 5.00 higher. Feeder heifers under 550 lbs fully 15.00-25.00 higher, few over 550 lbs steady to 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows 2.00-3.00 higher. Demand very good. Supply light. It's the same setup as last week as feeders continue to set new record highs following another round of higher fed cattle with prices from 210.00-215.00/cwt. Several consignments of good quality, unweaned, medium flesh new crop calves found excellent demand and are included in the bulk price ranges on weights under 500 lbs.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

24 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $519.42, low $374.69, median $457.99 across 24 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

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

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