Colorado cattle markets

Colorado participates in several parts of the beef chain, including cow-calf production, stocker grazing, and feedlot finishing. Eastern Colorado is a major feedlot region, while ranching is important on the Western Slope, in the mountain valleys, and across the eastern plains. The state's cattle markets and feedlots draw cattle from Colorado and surrounding western and plains states. Calf sales commonly increase in the fall following spring calving, and yearlings are marketed as grass and forage conditions change through the year.

Colorado cattle market commentary

About this data

These are auction sale prices reported by USDA Market News from livestock auctions across Colorado, summarized weekly. Feeder cattle are quoted per hundredweight (cwt); breeding and replacement cattle are often quoted per head or per pair. Prices move with the futures market, feed costs, and demand, so confirm current values at your local auction.

Colorado cattle price frequently asked questions

How much are feeder steers in Colorado right now?

Feeder steer prices in Colorado ran from about $228 to $618 per cwt this week, with lighter calves bringing more per hundredweight than heavy yearlings; feeder heifers ran about $200 to $530 per cwt. Prices are from the USDA weekly cattle auction summary for the week ending Oct 31, 2026. Exact prices depend on weight, frame, and quality, shown in the tables above.

Why do lighter cattle cost more per hundredweight?

Buyers usually pay a higher price per pound for lighter calves than for heavy yearlings, a pattern often called the price slide, because lighter cattle have more weight left to gain. That is why a 5-weight steer can post a higher per-cwt price than an 8-weight steer at the same auction.

How often are these cattle prices updated?

USDA Market News publishes Colorado auction summaries weekly, and this page refreshes after each new report. Auction prices can change from week to week, so check the report date shown above.
