As filed

Compared to the last sale: Feeder steers sold 3.00 to 18.00 higher. There was not enough data for an accurate trend on feeder heifers, and feeder bulls sold 14.00 to 30.00 higher. Slaughter cows sold steady. Quality was mostly attractive and demand was strong.

What quality paid 500–600 lb

Frame and muscle grade

One grade step is worth $51.40/cwt here — about $206 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 400–500 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

This barn's trailing prices 500–600 lb

9 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $415.76, low $365.20, median $387.65 across 9 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

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	1,103	139.33	1,537	2thin

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
