FEEDER CATTLE 1443 1653 1613
REPLACEMENT CATTLE 68 59 115
SLAUGHTER CATTLE 141 124 228
Compared to last Thursday the feeder market was lower with an average quality
offering. Light weight steers 300 lbs and under appeared steady with a lite
test, while the 400-600 lbs steers were 6.00 to 8.00 lower or greater in spots
with a good supply and moderate demand. Yearling steers appeared 3.00 to 6.00
lower with a good supply and moderate demand. Feeder heifers 600 lbs and under
were 3.00 to 5.00 lower with a good supply and good demand for weaned and
guaranteed open females. Negative pressure from the futures market coupled
with heavier conditioned calves and concerns of a drought locally has limited
some buyers interest and the premiums they are willing to pay for feeders.
Slaughter cows and bulls were mostly steady to 2.00 lower with a good supply
and good demand.
