Announcements
Well the border deal has gotten quiet for now, maybe the initial scare has passed. We look to be on more solid ground. We have a new Auctioneer. Drake moved on to another job and we wish him all the best!! We have hired a young man that I think is one of the best and is a good fit for us. Dustin Doughtry is our Auctioneer and we are glad to have him !!
Comments
Slaughter classes steady . Replacement bred cows steady to firm . Calves and feeder cattle 2 to 8 lower . Still lots of activity in the market, but at a little lower price. The cattle numbers are still low and the BEEF demand is still very STRONG !! Fed cattle in the West lower @ 228 to 230 with Iowa auctions to 245!!
Next Monday, August 24, we will have 70 head of some really outstanding bred heifers, 5 to 7 months bred to low birthweight Angus and Sim Angus bulls
Thank you all for your business and friendship!! And remember, we are not here just to sell your cattle; we are here to do whatever it takes to get every penny we can for your cattle.
GOOD COUNTRY COOKING BREAKFAST AND LUNCH!!!
