Eastern MO. Commission Co. wrapped up the year with a Special Bred Cow, Heifer and Pairs sale on Friday December 17th with a good offering of near 150 head of good to top quality bred heifers selling with good demand along with several young bred cows mostly 4-6 yrs in the 3rd stage and several groups of young pairs 2-6 yrs of age selling with moderate to good demand. Feeder cattle were lightly tested selling in small groups and lots. Slaughter cows on a nice offering sold fully steady to firm.

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.
