As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifers traded steady to firm, with the exception of 550-600 lb heifers and 650-700 lb steers both selling 5.00-12.00 higher. Demand was good on a moderate supply with a nice overall quality offering of 500-750 lb steers and heifers. The main offering was 4 pot loads of 700-800 lb heifers with two pot loads weighing 708-710 lbs at 272.25-273.10, pot load 747 lbs at 268.25 and pot load 800 lbs at 254.75. Slaughter cows on a light test sold steady.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $461.89, low $357.49, median $422.62 across 18 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
