As filed

Friday's auction was a Special Bred Cow and Heifer Pairs sale with a nice large offering of good quality 1st calf heifer pairs in the offering with baby to 175 lb calves selling with good demand. Also in the offering was a nice offering of young 3-5 year old cows with 150-250 lb calves selling with good demand. A young offering of mostly 3-6 year old fall calving cows sold with moderate to good demand. Feeder cattle were lightly tested on a light offering selling mostly in small packages and singles. A large offering of slaughter cows sold fully steady to firm.
