Steers 500–600 lb: high $465.72, low $335.08, median $373.48 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	1,725	199.88	3,448	8thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Low	1,126	179.00	2,016	7thin
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	914	154.06	1,407	4thin

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.
