Compared to last week, slaughter cows and bulls traded mostly 4.00 to 6.00 higher. Demand was good on a moderate supply of slaughter cattle. The replacement supply included mostly stock cows that created very good demand.

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	1,813	100.04	1,814	18
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,447	78.53	1,137	47

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.
