As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows gauging 2.00 to 7.00 higher overall, with no comparisons available for slaughter bulls due to limited comparable receipts, but a higher undertone was noted. No comparisons available for feeder classes, also due to limited comparable receipts, but a higher undertone was noted for steers and heifers with a lower undertone noted for bulls. Today's offerings for the head sale included a herd dispersal of Hereford cow/calf pairs and bred cows, with majority of which are registered stock.

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 $419.64, low $302.47, median $351.93 across 24 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
