As filed

Compared to last week, steers sold 5.00-15.00 higher with spots 20.00 higher. Heifers sold mostly steady when compared to last week's light test except for some calves under 450 lbs selling with a higher undertone. Demand was good to very good for a moderate supply that included several attractive loads of yearlings as the break in the heat provided some nice weather to move cattle. The record high prices don't hurt either. Slaughter cows sold steady to 3.00 higher.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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

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.
