As filed

Compared to last week, feeder heifers measuring 6.00 higher overall with feeder bulls 4.00 higher, and no comparisons available for feeder steers due to limited comparable receipts, but a higher undertone was noted. Slaughter cows gauging 2.00 to 4.00 lower overall with slaughter bulls sharply lower. No sale will be held the next two weeks in observance of the Christmas and New Year holidays.

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.
