We sold a total of 1615 head this week. 33 bulls, 152 butcher cows, 191 bred cows, 112 cw/cf pairs, 43 goats and sheep, and 1084 feeder cfs.  Overall I'm going to call the market mixedcompared to last week. Replacement cattle were steady and stayed strong. The top end of the cw/cf pairs around $4150.  The top end of the bred cows were $3300 with the majority in the 2200-2850 range. Butcher cows were a touch cheaper. #1 cows in the 185-195 range. High cow was 204. High kill bull was 210.  Feeders were steady on lighter to medium weights with good condition, steady on heavier weights and steady on thin plainer calves, which made up about 40% of the calves we saw yesterday. The market felt real good especially on the good quality calves. There was still a difference in the plainer, short, or odd calves.  Overall the market felt very strong, especialy considering the bigger number of cattle offered.
