Bulls 500–600 lb: high $415.51, low $272.86, median $319.28 across 14 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	1,720	135.00	2,322	1thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Low	1,149	104.12	1,196	6thin
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	963	91.00	876	2thin

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	3rd Stage (7-9 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	740	$850	1thin
Cow-Calf Pairs	Open	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	950	$2,275	4thin
