As filed

Compared to last week, steers under 600lbs sold mostly 3.00 to 8.00 lower, 6 weight steers were steady to 4.00 lower, and heavier weight steers sold with a lower undertone. Heifers were mostly 4.00 to 10.00 lower. Supply was heavy and demand was good for the quality yearlings in the offering, and moderate to light for the unweaned or short weaned plain calves. Slaughter cows and bulls sold 2.00 to 5.00 lower with moderate demand.

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.

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Bulls	—	Average	1,668	99.10	1,653	11
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,465	85.92	1,259	31

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Very Low	1,071	75.85	813	56

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	2nd/3rd Stage (4-9 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	1,191	$1,321	10
