COMMENTS
Slaughter classes 2 to 3 higher. Replacement bred cows and cow calf pairs steady to 100 dollars per head higher. Calves and feeder cattle mostly 3 to 5 lower and as much as 10 lower in spots . Still good demand with all buyers in attendance, just lower money on the orders. As always, the Big Boys are applying pressure to force the market down while the Major Beef Packers are having a record year in profits!!Fed cattle in the West lower @ 115- 116.
Thanks for letting us handle your cattle and if we can be of any help, just let us know!!
