As filed

Compared to last week, yearling steers and heifers sold steady, and a light test of cattle under 600 lbs sold with a lower undertone. Demand was good for a few nice consignments of yearlings which made up the majority of the offering and light to moderate for some calves. Supply was light. Slaughter cows sold 8.00-10.00 lower.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

23 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $460.56, low $332.17, median $405.00 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.

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.
