1484
head
A good run of
cattle again this week here at 101 Livestock.
We sold 1482 cattle for 72 consignors on a very active market this week,
on all classes of cattle offered.
The slaughter cow
continues to improve each week, as the dairy cow buyout ends this week.
Beef cows are, and will be getting shorter in numbers from now on, so we
look for cows to stay steady or even get a little higher.
We sold over 250 slaughter cows & bulls this week again.
The demand on the
choice quality steer & heifer calves with a good vacc. program, along with
the EID tags, remains very good, with most of these calves going to out-of-state
feedlots and pastures. Yearlings are
getting shorter in numbers each week, but the demand is still very strong.
Topping the steer
calf market was a nice consignment of LimoX steers weighing 436# selling for
104.00, the 530# steers brought 98.00, the 633# steers @ 99.25, and the 530#
heifer mates brought 86.00. These choice calves were consigned from Farron Bento of

Great
Sale
!!
It is very important to our
age and source program to have the exact tag numbers on the calf crop we are
approving and to have the paperwork done at least 2 weeks before cattle come to
sale. Turn in all unused tags for refund do not reuse them.
