As filed

A really nice offering of calves with several bunches of program cattle traded for this week's offering with feeders trading mostly steady, with the exception of calves under 500 pounds trading with a higher undertone and instances of $8.00-10.00 higher. Slaughter cows and bulls trading steady.

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

Steers 500–600 lb: high $516.16, low $414.87, median $480.03 across 20 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.
