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

35 sales

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $429.02, low $316.81, median $370.00 across 35 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle
