Compared to last week fly-weight steers sold 10.00 lower, 400 to 700 lbs sold steady to 5.00 higher. Heifers under 500 lbs 4.00 to 6.00 lower, 500 to 700 lbs 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Steers and heifers over 700 lbs unevenly steady. Slaughter cows 1.00 to 3.00 higher and bulls 3.00 to 5.00 higher. Light snow coupled by slick roads shortened slaughter cattle receipts at reporting auctions on Friday. But most people are happy with the heavy wet snow. This snow will be melted and the parched ground will soak it up like a sponge as daytime highs are forecasted to be in the 50’s early in the week.

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.
