As filed

Friday's auction was a Special Bred Cow and Pairs sale with a very nice offering of top quality 1st calf Heifer pairs and young pairs mostly 3-6 yrs of age all selling with very good demand. Feeder cattle were very lightly tested compared to last week's heavy volume sale and many calves were unweand. Slaughter cows on a nice offering sold firm to 2.00 higher.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.
