As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steer and heifer calves sold mostly 10.00-15.00 higher, instances sharply higher on heifers weighing 300-350 lbs. Feeder steers and heifers have no accurate comparison. Trade active demand good for calves going back on pasture. Slaughter cows traded 5.00-6.00 higher on a light test. Slaughter bulls were not well tested.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age
