[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1773461, member: 498"] They had nearly 3,000 head of feeder calves that day. The vast vast majority would have been good quality beef calves. The better heifers were bought by a man who is the head buyer for a big company that has half a dozen feedlots and their own kill plant. I knew that he wouldn't buy that heifer. Feedlots here simply don't want those kind. I recognize the buyer numbers on all the calves except that longhorn cross heifer. Don't know who bought her. I went and looked at their market report. They list a range for the bulk of that class and the top selling lot. The 400-500 pound heifers the bulk was $1.57 - $1.81 with a top of $1.84. So my heifers at $1.78 -$1.81 were at the top of the bulk. In the steers 300-400pounds the top was $2.48. That was some of mine. The 500-600 the top selling lot was $2.03. That was 9 steers of mine that rang the bell. [/QUOTE]
