Compared to last week, steer calves sold 6.00-8.00 higher, with instances 15.00 higher on 550-600 lbs, with the exception of 450-500 lb steers, selling 5.00-10.00 lower. Heifer calves under 400 lbs not comparable due to small numbers last week; 400-450 lbs 3.00-7.00 higher; over 450 lbs sold steady to 3.00 higher, with the exception of 450-500 lbs 2.00 lower. Feeder steers 8.00-13.00 higher on comparable sales. Feeder heifers 600-650 lbs 3.00 higher; over 650 lbs not well tested. Trade active, demand good, with excellent buyer attendance. Slaughter cows and bulls did not have sufficient numbers last week to compare to.

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
