As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, feeder steers and heifers 4.00-8.00 higher. Slaughter cows 4.00-5.00 higher. Demand very good. Supply moderate. The feeder market continues to move higher supported by fall feeder contracts priced from 210.00 and 214.00 cwt. Fed cattle are expected to trade higher again this week.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Bulls	—	Average	1,870	91.91	1,719	11
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,440	89.51	1,289	6thin

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.
