As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows gauging 1.00 to 5.00 higher overall with slaughter bulls 7.00 to 10.00 higher. No comparisons available for feeder classes due to limited comparable receipts, but a higher undertone was noted for feeder bulls. Light receipts noted in response to the Easter holiday weekend.

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.
