Friday's auction was a Special Bred Cow and Pairs sale with several consignments of 1st calf heifer pairs in the offering selling with very good demand, with the balance 4-7 year old pairs and bred cows 4-7 years of age in the 2nd and 3rd stage selling with moderate to good demand. A very large offering of slaughter cows sold on and active market trading firm to 3.00 higher. Feeder cattle consisted of mostly unweaned, short weaned and fleshy calves weighing 350-550 lbs selling with moderate to good demand with very few good comparisons.
