As filed

Friday's sale was a Special Bred Cow and Pairs sale with several 1st calf heifer pairs and young pairs mostly 3-6 yrs all selling with moderate to good demand. Bred cows were mostly all fall calving cows 3-6 yrs of age also selling with moderate to good demand. Feeder cattle were very lightly tested with several small packages of nice quality 400-460 lb heifer calves selling with a firm to higher undertone. Slaughter cows on a nice offering traded 2.00-5.00 higher.

One grade step is worth $78.73/cwt here — about −$84 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 0–100 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

This barn's trailing prices 0–100 lb

15 sales

Heifers 0–100 lb: high $262.69, low $223.56, median $246.96 across 15 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
