FEEDER CATTLE 1653 1388 2164
REPLACEMENT CATTLE 59 55 152
SLAUGHTER CATTLE 124 136 186
Compared to last Thursday the feeder market was mostly stronger with a good
quality offering. Feeder steers 400 lbs and under were sharply higher with
strong demand, while the 500-650 lbs steers were 3.00 to 4.00 lower with a good
supply and good demand. Feeder heifers 550 lbs and under were 6.00 to 10.00
higher or greater in spots with strong demand, while heifers 600 lbs and over
were mostly steady. Buyers were active today and willing to pay premiums for
weaned and harder conditioned calves, while discounting fatter bawling calves
and increasing the price spread in most weight classes. Slaughter cows were
2.00 to 3.00 lower with a good supply and slaughter bulls were steady with good
demand.
