Compared to last sale: Feeder steer and steer calves 2.00-7.00 higher with instances up to 15.00 higher. Feeder heifers 5.00-7.00 higher. Heifer calves 6.00-8.00 higher with instances up to 15.00 higher. Demand good. Quality much better compared to last sale. A cold front came through Saturday dropping ice and snow on the region bringing temperatures down into the single digits.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $505.48, low $365.18, median $444.36 across 34 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
