32 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $501.67, low $343.16, median $438.61 across 32 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	1,980	133.75	2,649	4thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,221	116.89	1,427	96

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	1,094	106.20	1,161	6thin

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.

Bred Cows	1st/2nd Stage (1-6 mo)	Middle Aged (5-8 yrs)	1,287	$1,500	15
