Friday's auction had a very light offering of feeder cattle selling mostly in small packages and singles and were lightly tested. Several small consignments of bred cows and pairs sold with moderate to good demand. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady to 2.00 lower.

One grade step is worth $10.18/cwt here — about $136 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.

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