No comparable feeder cattle sales last week for a market comparison. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 2.00 higher. Demand was good for all offerings on hand. Light rains and some snow showers across some parts of the state. Interesting report on the link shows the amount of water in each dam reservoirs across Wyoming and a handful from surrounding states.

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.
