As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows sold 1.00 to 3.00 lower, with no comparisons available for slaughter bulls or feeder classes due to limited comparable receipts, but a higher undertone and good demand was noted for all feeder classes with exception of a lower undertone for feeder bulls weighing up 450 lbs.

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.
