As filed

There was a full house this evening for the monthly replacement special at JRS. The offering consisted mostly of large groups of high quality heifers open and ready to breed. Other highlights were a full sell out of high quality pairs, some nice bred heifers, and a handful of young breeding bulls that created good demand.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
