As filed

Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves sold mostly steady and yearlings firm to 5.00 higher. The exception was for heifer calves weighing 450-500 lbs not quite reaching the highs realized last week. Demand was good for a moderate supply that featured several loads of yearlings. Slaughter cows and bulls sold 2.00-6.00 higher.

25 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $524.49, low $388.35, median $466.90 across 25 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
