32 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $404.73, low $296.94, median $362.05 across 32 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	—	High	1,616	142.08	2,295	10
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Low	1,339	116.98	1,567	107
Cows	Lean 85-90%	High	1,115	95.18	1,061	40

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/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	1,100	$1,500	1thin
Bred Cows	2nd Stage (4-6 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	1,035	$1,438	12
Bred Cows	3rd Stage (7-9 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	1,068	$1,404	12
