Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Due to the weather, too few of feeders in the offering for a price comparison, undertones were sharply higher. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady; Demand not established and supply very light.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $453.97, low $335.72, median $395.83 across 29 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
