Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers and heifers 3.00-12.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady. Demand good to very good. Supply light. Mostly smaller packages in the feeders with new crop calves continuing to increase in numbers. Fed cattle surprised many by trading higher late last week as improving demand and tight supplies forced the packers hand.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $519.42, low $374.69, median $458.20 across 23 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	1,708	169.15	2,890	6thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Low	1,452	139.00	2,018	14

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.
