As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows steady to 2.00 higher overall with slaughter bulls 3.00 higher. No comparisons available for feeder classes due to light receipts this week, but a lower undertone for heifers and higher undertone for bulls was noted. Also an increased demand by farmer-feeders was noted.

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

6 sales

Bulls 0–100 lb: high $204.16, low $162.85, median $195.90 across 6 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.

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.
