As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steers traded mostly steady to 5.00 lower on a light test. Feeder heifers traded unevenly steady from 2.00 higher to 3.00 lower. Supply of quality long time weaned yearlings was very light with mostly small packages of calves being offered this week. Demand was moderate to light as the weather turns and sickness increases in calves.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
