Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifers sold mostly steady to 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows and bulls traded steady to firm. As colder weather set in and a few inches of snow the supply was moderate, demand was good.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $452.44, low $350.03, median $427.75 across 27 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
