As filed

Friday's auction was a Special Bred Cow/ Heifer sale with a few pairs mixed in, several consignments of bred heifers with a couple consignments of top quality bred heifers that sold with good demand in the 3rd stage. Slaughter cows traded firm to 3.00 higher, spots 5.00 higher on the high dressing cows. Feeder cattle were very lightly tested with the bulk of sales being bulls.
