Tuesday, September 20, 2016 - Packer Day

Slaughter steers & heifers sold mostly 2.00 higher than last week, with the bulk of the advance on the sure fire choice cattle.  Lower yielding and less desirable grading cattle were mostly steady!

Cull cows continue their price decline which is typical with this time of year.  Very few cows brought 70.00 cwt. or more.  Bulls were 2.00-3.00 lower as well.
