We appreciate all our customers and if your local market has recently closed we welcome you to our sale.  Or if you are not happy where you are, we welcome you to come give us a try.  We thank you for spreading the word about our sale.

We sold 239 head of livestock - mixed goats,  hair sheep, a few wool sheep. Mixed quality stock.  But we are in summer months and not any holidays soon so don’t know what prices will do. For consignment sale we had a lot of poultry- lots of roosters, some hens, ducks, rabbits,  and some household stuff, farm stuff- couple trailers needing repair and a feeder and a sprayer, and fresh vegetables.  Had a good crowd for consignment and light crowd for livestock sale.  Mother nature has us in summer mode now.   Bear with us.  We have several new kids learning the ropes but doing pretty good so far except maybe on age of animals.  Beginning to get the hang of it.  We are rotating them to different jobs to see who does the best in what position.  Always hate to loose the graduating group but somebody else will come in to fill the slot.

If it’s a good breed, pretty color, slick, fat it will bring top price.  People are looking for QUALITY breeding stock or good meat products.  Excellent quality is bringing top prices. Skinny, old, scruffy, or sickly the prices drop off petty fast.  Still depends on demand as to where prices go.
