As filed

Compared to last week, breaker and boning slaughter cows gauging 2.00 lower with lean cows 2.00 higher. No comparisons available for slaughter bulls and feeder classes due to light receipts this week in response to excessive rainfall, however, a higher undertone was noted for slaughter bulls.

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.
