23 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $427.80, low $317.97, median $377.36 across 23 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
Bulls	—	Average	1,574	163.87	2,579	3thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,248	135.05	1,686	6thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	High	1,030	111.44	1,148	7thin

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
Bred Cows	1st Stage (1-3 mo)	Young (2-4 yrs)	1,330	$2,700	1thin
