Market Notes

Compared to last week; slaughter and feeder cows traded 3.00 to 4.00 higher. Slaughter bulls traded mostly steady on a lighter test. A nice run of feeder cattle with grass cattle selling sharply higher again this week. Also a nice run of all ages of cow calf pairs with higher undertones noted. Lots of moisture in the last two days making for an active market on feeders and replacement type cattle in high demand. A nice offering of all classes today. Sale again next Friday.

Supply included: 33% Feeder Cattle (26% Steers, 74% Heifers); 24% Slaughter Cattle (87% Cows, 13% Bulls); 43% Replacement Cattle (17% Stock Cows, 7% Bred Cows, 64% Cow-Calf Pairs, 13% Heifer Pairs). Feeder cattle supply over 600 lbs was 27%.
