As filed

Friday's auction was a Special Bred Cow and Pairs sale with a nice offering of good quality heifer pairs selling with good demand. Feeder cattle were very lightly tested selling in small packages and singles with no comparison. A good offering of slaughter cows sold 4.00-7.00 higher.

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.
