FEEDER CATTLE 1083 1508 1664
REPLACEMENT CATTLE 2 12 0
SLAUGHTER CATTLE 69 93 57
Compared to last Tuesday the feeder market was mostly steady with an average
quality offering of mostly yearling cattle. No trends on light weight feeder
steers and heifers 350 lbs and under due to a light test. However, the
400-700 lbs steers and heifers were unevenly steady ranging from 3.00 lower to
3.00 higher with a moderate supply and good demand. Yearling steer and heifer
loads were 2.00 to 4.00 higher with a good supply and good demand. Slaughter
cows and bulls were 3.00 to 6.00 lower with a moderate supply and moderate
demand.
