Heifers 500–600 lb: high $434.15, low $301.16, median $392.90 across 33 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	1,746	162.52	2,838	7thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,621	143.51	2,326	7thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Very Low	1,045	123.12	1,286	15

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.
