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 !!
Slaughter classes 5 to 8 lower . Replacement bred cows steady to firm . Calves and feeder cattle steady on the better quality cattle and 5 to 8 lower on some of the lesser quality . All buyers still with good orders and good activity in the market . The cattle numbers are still low and the BEEF demand is still very STRONG !! We need the government to get out of the way and let the MARKET WORK !!! Fed cattle in the West lower @ 223 to 227 with Iowa auctions to 232
