Compared to last Wednesday, slaughter cows sold steady to 1.00 lower and slaughter bulls sold 1.00-2.00 higher. The combined results of the regular cow and bull auction and the special replacement cow and bull auction gave a heavy supply of bred cows and cow calf pairs with some good quality bred cows on offer. There was a heavy supply of very good quality bred heifers. Several of those heifers were bred to low birth weight bulls, bred to calve in a 45 to 90 day calving window and had received vaccinations including scour guard. Supply and demand were moderate for slaughter classes.
