As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers and heifers 5.00-15.00 higher on a limited market test. Slaughter cows 1.00-2.00 higher. Demand very good. Supply light. The feeder market is higher with feeder futures seeing huge gains to start the week. Much of the offering were unweaned calves, several of which had either one or two rounds of shots.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $453.15, low $349.60, median $411.53 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	—	Low	1,706	184.91	3,155	12
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,285	162.47	2,087	28

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.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
