Good day, due to the nasty weather were having made for a small run of cattle. To few to get trends. There will be no sales for the next two weeks due to Christmas and New Years holiday have a Merry Christmas.

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

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
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,193	58.38	696	2thin
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Very Low	1,029	39.33	405	6thin

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.

Class	Stage	Age	Avg wt	$/head	Head
Cow-Calf Pairs	Open	Middle Aged (5-8 yrs)	955	$800	2thin
