Tues., July 17, 2018 - Packer Day


A nice quality run of slaughter steer & heifers and the market responded 1.00 higher compared to last week.  Today's top was 114.25 with buyers still looking for weight & finish.

A smaller cow run than normal but prices remain steady on cull cows with bulls also selling steady!  Top bull was a high yielding charx bull weighing 1850# @ 99/cwt.
