As filed

Friday's auction was a Special Bred Cow and Pairs sale with a very light offering of feeder cattle that were not well tested as many were calves coming off the cows sold earlier in the day. There was a nice offering of top quality fancy 1st calf heifer pairs and three lots of top quality young pairs that sold with very good demand. The bred cows were mostly all fall calving and sold with light demand. Slaughter cows on a nice offering sold fully steady with last week.

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

Heifers 0–100 lb: high $262.69, low $218.12, median $248.48 across 13 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
