We sold a total of 659 head this week. 17 bulls, 55 butcher cows, 95 bred cows, 42 cw/cf pairs, 6 goats and sheep, and 444 calves.  Overall I'm going to call the market mixed compared to last week. Replacement cattle were steady considering quality of the selections. The top end of the cw/cf pairs around 4850.  The top end of the bred cows were $3200 with the majority in the 2200-2800 range. Butcher cows were cheaper. #1 cows in the 155-162 range. High cow was 169.  High kill bull was 204.  Feeders were a little cheaper on lighter to medium weights with good condition, steady on heavier weights and a touch cheaper on thin plainer calves, which made up about 40% of the calves we saw yesterday. I did see a slight increase in 5,6,and 7 wt steers by 20-30 Overall, the rest of the calf market was a touch cheaper, but not by much.    There was a bigger difference in the plainer, short, or odd calves. Any calves with hair will be a good bit cheaper from now untill fall.
