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

3 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $383.95, low $362.11, median $363.78 across 3 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	1,607	160.59	2,581	3thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,127	137.19	1,546	6thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Low	1,130	127.50	1,441	1thin
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	907	119.44	1,083	9thin

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	1st Stage (1-3 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	928	$875	2thin
