Most pairs are being split and Jan-march calving cows which is common here are going to slaughter no matter of age. A weaned heifer calve will bring almost as much as a young bred cow.Two year old good pairs $3,225.00 today.

It's been interesting.Probably sell out most of what I have if
I could get that.
I was at the sale in Canandaigua and pleasantly surprised at the prices on everything. Even the heavy 750-900 lbs feeders were selling well. Cull cow prices usually peak in July and drop by now, but not this year. It will be hard to keep heifers and marginal producing cows at these prices.One of our best feeder calf sale barns posted sale from 9-9:
301-500# high $287.50 - avg $218
501-700# high $270.00 - avg $214
701 - up# high $248.00 - avg 208
I'm getting ready to sell mine direct to my feedlot buyer. Will ask $250 - mine will avg over 700#
