Clean-up

[bgc]

Yesterday I sold some cull cows and some cleanup calves that were born late and were too small to sell earlier in the year. The 12 open cows averaged 1106 and brought 67 cents. They were in fair flesh and didnt have anything wrong with them, they were just open. The calves were just some late born calves out of both heifers and cows that just didnt grow enough to sell earlier. The 15 calves averaged 425 and brought $1.86. I watched some of my neighbors calves that were real light weights (315) that brought 2.02 as well. They didnt top the market or anything but they sure sold good for being culls.

I sold some yearling steers today that averaged 615#, average price of
$165.66 or $1,019.35 per head. Seemed like a good price for a yearling steer. Heifers from the same group weighed 608, average price of $138.53 or $842.24 per head. Just wish I'd had lots more!

Those were both good sales/ I hauled 6 in today. a bull that had foot rot and 5 various cows. Hope the sale is good tomorrow.
