As filed

Compared to last Tuesday: Feeder heifers sold steady to 4.00 higher with good buyer interest. Bull calves traded 2.00-4.00 lower and no comparison on feeder steers due to low head count last week. Slaughter cows sold 3.00-5.00 higher on a light test and there were no slaughter bulls.

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

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%	Average	1,130	80.00	904	1thin
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	1,110	69.00	766	1thin

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.
