Bulls 500–600 lb: high $435.81, low $279.34, median $350.35 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.

Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,191	124.54	1,483	22

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age
