As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifers sold 3.00 to 5.00 lower on a light supply made up of mostly small lots of unweaned, less attractive calves; not enough weaned or vaccinated calves or yearlings for a price comparison. Slaughter cows and bulls traded mostly 5.00 to 10.00 lower. Supply was light with a moderate demand.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $510.74, low $386.45, median $479.15 across 29 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
