Very good demand for all weights of steers and heifers as the cash fed cattle market reached new all-time high, record prices. Cattle feeders are very eager to get cattle placed on feed as their outgoing cattle were very profitable. Grass yearlings are starting to be offered and the market is incredibly active as buyers are willing to compete very heavily and chase the market a long ways to secure these highly desirable cattle. Yearlings that have been fed in a yard are also highly sought after, dependent upon flesh condition. --------------------------------------------------------------- FEEDER CATTLE --------------------------------------------------------------- HEIFERS - Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 81 1005-1020 1013 287-299.5 293.13 9 1073-1073 1073 289-289 289 HEIFERS - Medium and Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 36 1009-1009 1009 299-299 299 27 1017-1017 1017 312.5-312.5 312.5 Fancy 17 438-438 438 482.5-482.5 482.5 12 541-541 541 410-410 410 31 600-643 633 390-405 393.37 14 654-677 667 360-365 362.84 41 707-710 708 344-352.5 348.55 31 710-710 710 358-358 358 Spayed 144 751-794 781 317-340 322.02 57 801-846 835 316-331 322.84 65 869-869 869 327-327 327 Spayed 121 850-892 872 300-328 316.99 66 907-907 907 320.75-320.75 320.75 NHTC 77 901-947 928 304-318 308.49 64 934-934 934 311.5-311.5 311.5 Spayed 57 963-963 963 321-321 321 Fancy 171 952-987 976 286-315 307.62 HEIFERS - Medium and Large 1-2 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 10 615-649 632 372.5-375 373.72 13 657-657 657 327.5-327.5 327.5 8 660-660 660 325-325 325 Spayed 7 840-840 840 305-305 305 34 900-900 900 298-298 298 STEERS - Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 116 1014-1026 1024 316.5-339.25 336.14 29 1147-1147 1147 269-269 269 STEERS - Medium and Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 8 335-335 335 540-540 540 7 392-392 392 510-510 510 Unweaned 28 406-424 421 506-510 506.69 8 515-515 515 470-470 470 12 583-591 587 412.5-422.5 417.47 26 600-612 609 430-439 435.01 62 682-694 689 355-409 393.76 28 703-735 722 382-392.5 386.32 56 758-788 766 360-374 370.42 201 801-843 819 346-356.75 351.2 31 860-860 860 374-374 374 Fancy 249 850-899 876 325.5-353.75 340.24 549 906-943 921 316-346.75 342.33 1254 950-984 968 319-337.25 330.63 STEERS - Medium and Large 1-2 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 10 599-599 599 405-405 405 25 625-645 641 417.5-426 422.8 5 675-675 675 355-355 355 29 705-712 710 347.5-365 351.69 10 792-799 796 315-334 324.54 --------------------------------------------------------------- REPLACEMENT CATTLE --------------------------------------------------------------- BRED COWS - Medium and Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 19 1168-1168 1168 3600-3600 3600 BRED COWS - Medium and Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 37 1176-1418 1294 4500-4500 4500 COW-CALF PAIRS - Medium and Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 6 1471-1471 1471 4700-4700 4700 O
