Compared to last week not enough feeder cattle for a market comparison. Slaughter cows sold steady to 3.00 lower and slaughter bulls steady to 1.00 lower. Another large run of slaughter and replacement cows. Some areas of the state have received some moisture but, not quite enough to sustain the numbers within cattlemen's herds. Also, hay prices continue to be relatively high, and the outlook is the same for the 2022 growing season.

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.
