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 $397.24, low $291.80, median $341.74 across 7 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	1,658	197.00	3,267	3thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,280	180.07	2,305	2thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,435	175.00	2,511	1thin
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Very Low	1,022	145.78	1,490	8thin

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 Stage (4-6 mo)	Young (2-4 yrs)	755	$2,000	1thin
Cow-Calf Pairs	Open	Young (2-4 yrs)	975	$3,400	1thin
