SLAUGHTER CATTLE 31 43 81
REPLACEMENT CATTLE 7 88 32
FEEDER CATTLE 358 576 430
Compared to last Wednesday the feeder market was mixed with an average quality
offering. Good quality feeder steers and heifers were unevenly steady today
ranging from 3.00 lower to 4.00 higher or greater in a few spots with a
limited supply and moderate demand. Increased heat and humidity is limiting
cattle movement and increasing buyers selectiveness and the discounts for
plainer and off colored feeders. Slaughter cows were 3.00 to 4.00 lower with a
limited supply and moderate demand and slaughter bulls appeared steady with a
light test.
