As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers 2.00-7.00 higher, except for 800-900 lbs 7.00 lower. Steer calves 4.00-6.00 higher. Feeder heifers and heifer calves steady to 5.00 higher. Demand good. The Oklahoma Panhandle received up to 5.00 inches of snow last week. The forecast calls for another cold front to move into the area Saturday lasting until Wednesday.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $505.48, low $365.18, median $443.08 across 35 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
