As filed

Compared to last week, feeder heifers weighing up to 550 lbs. and feeder bulls weighing up to 650 lbs. sharply higher, with limited comparable receipts for heavier classes of heifers and bulls and a lower undertone noted. No comparisons available for feeder steers due also to limited comparable receipts, but a higher undertone was noted. Slaughter cows holding mostly steady overall, with slaughter bulls 1.00 to 3.00 lower.

Slaughter cattle
