As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steers sold mostly 4.00 to 10.00 higher with spots up to 15.00 higher and feeder heifers were steady to 6.00 higher based on limited receipts last sale. Slaughter cows and bulls sold 3.00 to 5.00 higher. Supply was moderate with good demand for the feeder and slaughter offering. A few herd dispersals were included in the replacement cattle offering that brought high quality pairs, bred cows, and a few bred heifers to town that had very good demand from buyers ringside.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $492.10, low $375.17, median $453.16 across 23 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
