* Hall of Fame Sale, Saturday, July 25, 2026*

Compared to last week, feeder and stocker steers and heifers, not enough for market test. Boning utility slaughter cows sold steady, strong undertone. Lean utility slaughter cows sold steady to 8.00 higher. Several slaughter bulls sold today. Today also marks the 13th day of down of CME Cattle Futures. 3 loads of heavy 8 weight heifers sold 317.25 to 319.50 cwt, one load of light 9 weight steers sold for 329.00 cwt.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $458.54, low $344.43, median $406.52 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.
