As filed

Friday's auction was a Special Bred Cow and Heifer Sale with a nice offering of good quality black bred heifers in the 3rd stage on offer with several consignments AI bred, also in the offering was a consignment of young top quality blk bred 3-4 years in the 3rd stage all selling with moderate to good demand. Slaughter cows on a nice offering sold steady to 3.00 higher with the most advance on the Boning and Lean cows. A very light test of feeders sold with no comparisons on any weight range.
