27 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $477.64, low $370.24, median $444.69 across 27 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.

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Bulls	—	High	1,792	167.34	2,998	3thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,242	138.54	1,720	26
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	900	108.06	973	7thin

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.

Class	Stage	Age	Avg wt	$/head	Head
Bred Heifers	2nd Stage (4-6 mo)	Young (2-4 yrs)	955	$1,875	1thin
