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
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,350	150.00	2,025	2thin
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	1,193	147.55	1,760	2thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,393	145.00	2,020	2thin

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
Bred Cows	2nd Stage (4-6 mo)	Young (2-4 yrs)	1,200	$2,800	1thin
Cow-Calf Pairs	Open	Middle Aged (5-8 yrs)	1,150	$2,900	1thin
