Heifers 500–600 lb: high $418.00, low $291.08, median $355.52 across 18 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	1,455	126.67	1,843	3thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Low	1,236	117.74	1,456	11

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	1,022	100.53	1,027	6thin

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
