Heifers 500–600 lb: high $434.15, low $301.16, median $391.36 across 34 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	1,353	157.55	2,132	5thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,246	149.27	1,860	7thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Very Low	1,084	131.37	1,424	9thin

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.
