Compared to the last slaughter / replacement cattle sale 3 weeks ago, slaughter cows sold mostly 5.00 to 10.00 higher, and slaughter bulls were steady to 5.00 higher. Demand was very good on a heavy supply.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Bulls	—	Average	1,759	193.23	3,399	45
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Low	1,585	160.44	2,543	34

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Very Low	1,090	138.15	1,506	110

Replacement cattle Per head
