A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

16 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $411.54, low $289.87, median $358.45 across 16 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
