Reporter comment USDA

As filed

*No sale on 7/22/26 due to celebrating July 24th*

No trend available due to not enough comparable sales on feeder cattle and slaughter cows. Slaughter bulls sold 7.00 higher on a light test. Trade was active with a good demand with a light supply.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $433.70, low $334.13, median $380.56 across 15 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle
