No recent test on feeder cattle but a higher undertone was noted. Slaughter cows sold 1.00 to 2.00 lower and bulls 2.00 lower. Cow/calf pairs sold fully steady. With dry pastures conditions across most of the state Torrington Livestock started their Wednesday special feeder auction a full month earlier than normal. With very high hay prices, short grazing, and limited water resources several cattlemen continue to make the very hard decision as they sell some or all their cow herds.

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 Wyoming barn reports cover, so it must never be added to a state total built from those barns.
