Tuesday, December 29, 2015 - Packer Day
With the recent surge in the live and feeder board, it made for a much better slaughter market compared to the last couple weeks. Today's top was 129.00.
The cull cows trade was also very active as the best cows topped 90.00 once again. Bred cows will be our 1st special of the new year on Jan. 5th.
