As filed

Compared to last week, steers sold uneven but the majority of weight groups sold steady to 5.00 lower with the exception being those weighing 550-650 lbs selling 10.00-15.00 higher and getting back to the prices seen two weeks ago. Heifers sold steady to 3.00 lower. Demand was moderate to good for a moderate supply. Slaughter cows sold 4.00-8.00 higher, bulls 10.00-12.00 higher.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $452.11, low $345.78, median $422.91 across 33 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.

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.
