NOV 22, 2024 - HERD I
Heart of the Herd - November 22, 2024
Hello Central Montana & Beyond! Excellent turnout of cattle and buyers for our Friday Heart of the Herd sale, featuring the Anvil Land & Cattle Dispersion and the annual Weaver Land & Livestock bred heifers and young cows, along with a good cross-section of Central Montana cattle! Bred stock in good rig and calving in the right time frame sold very well. There were just shy of 1,000 bred heifers to six-year-olds that combined averaged $2,756, with several packages of three and four-year-olds topping out at $3,050, and a nice package of bred heifers selling at $3,000 on the top end. It wasn’t just bred heifers and young cows commanding a solid market - running age and older cows were in excellent demand as well! Solid mouth cows were as high as $2,650 and two straight loads of broken and smooth mouth cows brought $2,100!
Reminder, Heart of the Herd II is Tuesday, November 26th, where we’ll feature another good offering of cows and heifers. Check our Early Consignments page for more information. By the way, we will sell feeder cattle and weigh-ups on Tuesday as well. - Thank you for bringing your business our way! ~ Kyle Shobe
