Compared to last week; slaughter and feeder cows traded 4.00 to 8.00 higher. Slaughter bulls traded fully steady to last week. A shorter run this week but a very active market with a short supply of cows. Sale again next Friday.
Slaughter cattle
By class and quality grade · $/cwt
Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.
Nothing removed and nothing rounded — the same lots as the USDA report, with per-head values added. Grouped by class and set lightest first; USDA files them in sale-ring order.
