Data sourced from USDA AMS
View USDA PDF VersionCompared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers 15.00 to 30.00 higher. Very good demand for all weights of steers and heifers. As the arctic plunge last week that saw below zero daytime highs has moved on, cattle feeders were more ready to receive incoming cattle than they were last week. The market was very active across all classes. Long strings and some full loads, along with ample smaller packages to make full loads of. Quality was very attractive and flesh condition light to moderate plus. Next feeder cattle auction will be Feb. 5, 2026.
