Good day, as compared to the last market feeder calves were mostly steady, but a little better in spots. Slaughter cows and bulls were steady. Had some really good stocker cows.

Slaughter cattle

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.
