No trend due to no report last week. Cattle were in high demand with a limited supply. Buyer participation was very strong. Quality of cattle was average to good. There will be no sale until after the first of the year.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Bulls	—	Average	1,825	141.50	2,582	2thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,550	113.52	1,760	2thin

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.
