Compared to the sale last week: Steers 600-700 lbs were mostly steady to 2.00 higher, 750-950 lbs mostly 4.00-6.00 higher. Heifers 400-700 lbs were mostly 3.00-6.00 higher with instances sharply higher, 750-800 lbs 1.00 higher, 850 lbs 6.00 higher today. Many load lots of both calves and yearlings in the offering today, along with plenty of smaller packages. Demand good throughout the sale, especially on light calves as the supply is getting narrow.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $484.12, low $359.91, median $414.58 across 25 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
