33 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $501.78, low $364.36, median $447.56 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.

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Bulls	—	High	1,767	176.14	3,112	15
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,208	131.09	1,584	31

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Very Low	1,057	108.58	1,147	37

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.
