is this because it was in November and that is the time of year when prices are the flatest.
Brandonm2":108l3wxc said:The market grades them. When there is great demand they bring great price. As supply increases price decreases. I was at an Angus sale just this weekend. This time it was the Alabama Angus Assn Fall Sale.
The top selling cow was a 5 year old New Design 1407 daughter out of a Precision 1680 cow with a bull calf. A good cow that was originally bought at Gardiner's. She brought $3900.
The #2 cow was a heavy bred 6 year old JLB Exacto 416 daughter out a Traveler cow. She brought $3600. Her February GAR Solution daughter brought $1900 for a combined lot price of $5500.
The top selling bull was an 18 month old GAR Retail Product sired bull, who had EXT and Precision 1680 on both the top and bottom of his pedigree. His $B was 53.6. He brought $2750.
The #3 cow was an Emblazon daughter out of an EXT cow with a Predestined calf. She brought $2600.
A similarly bred cow with a Sitz Alliance 6595 heifer calf brought $2500.
A BAR EXT Traveler 205 cow with a Mytty In Focus heifer also brought $2500.
An 878 grand daughter with an otherwise all Alabama pedigree and a GAR Solution heifer also brought $2500.
A SAF Strategy 9015 daughter with a Boyd New Day heifer also brought $2500.
A 4 year old Millcreek Diversity daughter out of a SAF 598 Bando 5175 cow with a GAR Retail Product bull calf brought $2500.
A 7 year old New Design 036 daughter with a heifer calf brought $2400.
Everything else brought less than $2000....all the way down to a 14 month old Boyd New Day 8005 bull (+37.96 $B) the stockyard bought for $800.
