Not enough calves or feeder cattle for an adequate market comparison. Slaughter cows and bulls sold 2.00 to 3.00 higher on a light test. Very light receipts this week compared last week and a year ago. More than likely a large amount of slaughter cows will not hit the market until ranchers start to wean and preg check cows. Then older and open cows will come to town to help save feed resources for females that are bred. Spotty rain showers in some areas of the state. Most of the state remains in a drought situation.

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.
