No trends could be established due to lack of comparable data from light receipts the previous week, however all classes of Feeder Calves traded mostly steady.

Heifers · summary 500–600 lb

Medium and Large 1	546	403.10	2,202	24

One grade step is worth $41.89/cwt here — about $228 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 200–300 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

This barn's trailing prices 500–600 lb

27 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $420.69, low $331.98, median $395.01 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

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.
