Tuesday, Sept. 17, 2013- Packer Day

Lots of quality in the slaughter steer & heifer ale today with several consignments bringing 124.00 or better.  Extreme top was 127.00!

Big cow run with a large percentage of the cows and bulls showing the effects of a hot, dry summer and short pastures.  With the said, the trade was still 4.00-6.00 lower with good majority of the cows shorty on yield compared to past weeks.
