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

33 sales

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $413.75, low $294.93, median $352.66 across 33 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	1,679	210.09	3,528	24
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,182	179.84	2,125	83
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	835	139.26	1,162	14

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)	1,109	$3,028	6
