As filed

Friday's sale was a Special Bred Cow and Pairs sale with a nice offering of good quality young bred cows mostly 3-5 years in the 2nd stage selling with good demand. Consignment of 1st calf heifer pairs sold with good demand with the balance mostly cow pairs from 5 years to short solid mouth selling with moderate demand. A large offering of slaughter cows traded steady to 3.00 higher, spots 5.00 higher on the high dressing cows. Feeder cattle were very lightly tested on light offering of mostly unweaned/short weaned calves.
