[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1811714, member: 498"] All of the sales here sell by class of livestock. Generally groups of feeder calves first, then the singles, then pairs or bred cows, and kill cows last. The kill cows are tagged and all go into a big pen. The first ones coming out of the pen sell first. Those that hang to the back sell last. I was at a sale last winter. There was a dozen or so bred cows but a ton of feeder calves. Sale started at noon. At 10:00 I went out to see if the bred cows were getting close. It was feeder calves for as far as I could see. I gave up and went home. The next week there I asked one of the kill buyers how long it lasted. He said the last cow through the ring was at 5:36 that next morning. [/QUOTE]
