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

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	—	High	1,783	118.57	2,114	11
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,536	85.43	1,313	16
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,248	85.09	1,062	16
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	960	66.55	639	20

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.

Bred Cows	3rd Stage (7-9 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	1,162	$1,210	14
Bred Cows	2nd Stage (4-6 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	1,252	$1,014	11
