Compared to last week feeder steers and heifers sold steady to weak on a thin test. Slaughter cows and bulls sold 7.00 to 9.00 lower. Demand was moderate to good. Slaughter cows might continue to back up as ranchers will be shipping old, thin and probably all open cows to town soon due to dry and burned grazing pastures. Some ranchers will buy hay to help supplement livestock and try to keep most cows around for another year.

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.
