Dan Tolley has worked hard for a lot of years to get to the point of having a production sale. He was the head line feature of the Mar bred cow sale, and I feel honored that he asked me to sort his portion of the sale, and to keep the sale order straight and moving.
These are COMMERCIAL black Angus, and black white face cows. The calves were born Jan and Feb. :

Tuesday, March 1, 2022 - Packer Day-Breeding Stock

The March bred cow sale (248 head) featured a select group of mostly young cows with calves at side and 11 yearling bulls all from Dan Tolley. The top group brought $3100 with the rest from $2600 to $3000. Top bull was a Tahoe son marked at $4100.

The rest of the sale was made up of mostly 3rd period bred cows sold in small groups. Top end sold from $1600 to $1850 with the rest $1550 and down. Several groups of SS to aged cows traded mostly $950 to $1225.

2nd period cows were slower to find new homes from $1550 and down.

437 slaughter cattle including 174 fed steers and heifers that sold with good demand on a 154.00 top. Overall not as many high yielding cattle in today's offerings the market traded mostly steady to 1.00 lower!

Slaughter cow & bull prices continue to push higher with a large number of cows at 80.00 or better. Compared to last week cows traded 3.00 higher.
