Reporter comment USDA

As filed

compared to last week: There was not enough data to call a trend on feeder cattle but a higher undertone was noted. Slaughter cows and bulls sold mostly steady. Quality was average and demand was moderate.

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

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $415.76, low $319.98, median $368.98 across 8 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.

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Bulls	—	Average	1,750	162.00	2,835	1thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,164	123.53	1,438	4thin
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	1,075	99.00	1,064	1thin

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.
