Had one of our largest sales at West Point selling over 3600 cattle.  We also had prices that we have never seen before.  We called our market 6 to 10 higher on those super green calves.  We are lining up our next precondition sale for Feb 6 with some super sets on the list.  Here are some results:

Had a nice run of fats with a good active market sending the top steers out at $127.50.  Our weigh cows and bulls were fully steady selling right at 500 head.  We did have some drug free bulls bring from 100 to 105.  Our feeders got along extremely well with a very active market selling a lot of those light-weight calves over $2.00/cwt.  Our next precondition feeder sale is this Monday February 6 showing you 2500 weaned and vaccinated calves starting at 11:30 a.m.
