30 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $463.14, low $334.44, median $421.53 across 30 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	—	High	1,521	185.30	2,819	14
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,183	163.43	1,933	38
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,453	160.81	2,337	12
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	956	132.79	1,269	26

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
Bred Cows	2nd/3rd Stage (4-9 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	1,100	$2,852	8
