A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

15 sales

Bulls 0–100 lb: high $224.63, low $154.13, median $208.17 across 15 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
