As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifers sold mostly steady to 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows and bulls traded steady to firm. As colder weather set in and a few inches of snow the supply was moderate, demand was good.

What quality paid 500–600 lb

Frame and muscle grade

Frame / muscle	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Medium and Large 1	544	287.72	1,565	31
Medium and Large 1-2	563	260.57	1,468	31

One grade step is worth $27.16/cwt here — about $96 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 500–600 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

27 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $461.89, low $384.72, median $433.18 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
