Not enough feeder cattle for a market comparison. Slaughter cows were mostly steady to 1.00 higher and slaughter bulls steady to 2.00 higher. Bred cows and pairs steady. Demand was moderate from inhouse and internet buyers. Quite a few cow/calf pairs continue to come to town as most range conditions remain dry. But on the upside some areas of the state have improved to abnormally dry instead of moderate drought conditions.

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.
