Tues., August 14, 2018 - Packer Day


Slaughter steers and heifers sold 2.00 to 2.50 lower with a 113.50 top on a good run, but many are still coming to market short on finish.  Quality was good but without finish grading will be marginal and the spread was a factor.

Slaughter cows sold with a weaker undertone and bulls were weaker.

Next feeder special Thursday, August 23, no restrictions, all feeders welcome.
