Bred heifers going through the ring

Went to a bred heifer sale today in Valentine. The market was not too bad on some, but a little uneven all the way through. Topping the sale was 12 head of black baldies that were AIed to calve Feb 20 for four days. They weighed 1146# and brought $1220 per head. Next best was 24 Angus to calve Feb 20 for four days. They weighed 1177# and brought $1200 per head. A lot of the heifers ended up bringing approximately a dollar per pound. Some of the lighter weighing and later calving heifers brought down to around $900. Some red Angus heifers weighing about 1050# that will calve mid April through mid May brought $950. It was a good cold wintery day to not be either selling or buying. :wink:
