Reporter comment USDA

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. Most of the feeders were calves selling off the cows sold earlier in the day and sold in small packages or singles. A nice consignment of black bred heifers to calf in the fall sold with moderate to good demand along with a good offering of young bred cows 4-6 yrs of age sold with good demand.
