All cattle were vaccinated and wormed with many qualifying as All Natural with affidavits. Cattle graded by a certified USDA Livestock Grader and sold via board sale with video representation. Cattle were sold on estimated weights. Actual weights are adjusted with a 2 percent pencil shrink. A price slide of 4 cent is applied for cattle averaging 25-50 lbs heavier than the estimate, and a 6 cent slide for weights 50 lbs or more over the estimated weight. All prices are per hundred weight FOB Current Delivery. Supply included: 100% Feeder Cattle (16% Steers, 84% Heifers). Feeder cattle supply over 600 lbs was 95%.
