As filed

Friday's auction was a Special Bred Cow and Pairs sale with a nice offering of young bred cows to short solid mouth cows in the 3rd stage selling with moderate to good demand, along with a few reputation blk young pairs selling with good demand. Feeder cattle were lightly tested, but a light test of heifers weighing 450-650 lbs sold with a steady to firm undertone. Slaughter cows on a good offering sold mostly 2.00-5.00 higher.

15 sales

Heifers 0–100 lb: high $262.69, low $223.56, median $246.96 across 15 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
