31 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $438.84, low $342.27, median $399.63 across 31 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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

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