Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifers were mostly 4.00-5.00 lower with light to moderate demand. Buyers showed the best interest in long-weaned (45+ days), preconditioned feeder cattle, especially as the warm days and cool nights of fall can create health concerns in newly weaned calves. Slaughter cows were mostly 2.00-3.00 lower, and slaughter bulls 4.00-5.00 lower

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
Source: USDA AMS, as filed — nothing recomputed and nothing rounded. This summary aggregates the same sales the Tennessee barn reports cover, so it must never be added to a state total built from those barns.
