Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Due to the weather the feeder offering was too small for a trend comparison, undertones sharply higher. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady; Demand not establish and supply very light.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $512.44, low $386.16, median $455.18 across 26 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	—	High	1,847	198.65	3,669	3thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,310	165.00	2,162	1thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	High	1,186	149.87	1,777	7thin

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.

Class	Stage	Age	Avg wt	$/head	Head
Bred Cows	3rd Stage (7-9 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	1,278	$2,403	2thin
