No trend this week as this was the first Calf Special of the fall run. A nice run of mainly preconditioned calves with all receipts being calves right off the cow. A nice offering with a few load lots but mainly package trade. Sale again next Monday.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.
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.

Wyoming weighted averages
One sale is one barn on one day. The state ladder is every Wyoming auction USDA reported that week, weighted by head — the fairer test of whether a lot sold well.
No trend this week as this was the first Calf Special of the fall run. A nice run of mainly preconditioned calves with all receipts being calves right off the cow. A nice offering with a few load lots but mainly package trade. Sale again next Monday.
