No feeder cattle comparisons this week due to limited comparable sales. Slaughter cows were steady. Slaughter bulls were too few to trend. Moderate offerings of mostly average quality cattle with active buyer participation.

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.
