As filed

There was a full house tonight at the monthly replacement cattle special at the SLMC. Sale highlights included many sets of high quality heifers, many of which had been pelvic measured, synchronised, and bred for tight calving windows. One popular consignment was a group of almost 200 mostly black hided heifers AI bred to fullblood Wagyu bulls, and cleaned up to fullblood Wagyu bulls, with buyback premium offering on the calves. Cold temperatures outside didn't scare away buyers, bidding online and in person was active throughout the evening.
