A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

17 sales

Bulls 0–100 lb: high $223.27, low $172.06, median $206.60 across 17 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

Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,218	86.49	1,053	13

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	1,166	63.64	742	8thin

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.
