Good day, as compared to the last market feeder calves were 5-10 higher had some really good calves. Slaughter cows were a little higher and bulls steady. Reminder that there will be no sales next week in the state, enjoy your fourth of July.

What quality paid 500–600 lb

Frame and muscle grade

Frame / muscle	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head

Medium and Large 2	522	330.53	1,725	3thin

One grade step is worth $38.12/cwt here — about $125 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 300–400 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

This barn's trailing prices 500–600 lb

29 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $422.02, low $351.03, median $394.33 across 29 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.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
