As filed

Friday's auction was a Special Bred Cow sale with a light offering of feeder cattle not well tested with last Friday's heavy receipts, but the overall undertone was sharply lower on all weights, with several consignments of unweaned feeders. Bred cows sold with moderate demand mostly 3-6 yrs in the 2nd-3rd stage, several young pairs top quality mostly 5 year old cows few bred back in the first stage with nice 200-250 lb calves sold with good demand. Large offering of slaughter cows sold steady to 2.00 lower and a large offering of slaughter steers and heifers sold 3.00-4.00 lower compared to last week's large offering of near same numbers.
