Compared to last week most weights of steers sold 4.00 to 6.00 higher and
heifers sold steady to 10.00 higher. Demand was good with very good demand for
replacement heifers. Large lot of true F1 baldie heifers weighing 948 lbs sold
for 4550.00 per head. They are headed out of state and will have a bull placed
with them for 2027 calving. Another set of black hided 738 lbs heifers going
to summer grass dropped the gravel at 403.00. With the CME cattle boards
trading higher and record high prices on slaughter steers and heifers the
upward momentum spilled over into the calf and feeder cattle market. Buyers
were active on the seats and on the internet. Area feedlots on the cash trade
sold live sales from 255.00 to 257.00 and dressed sales sold at mostly 400.00!
