As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows sold 3.00 to 8.00 lower with no comparisons available for slaughter bulls or feeder classes due to limited comparable receipts, however, a higher undertone and higher-quality offerings was noted for feeder cattle.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $419.64, low $302.47, median $351.93 across 24 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
