Quote of the Week: ADJUST YOUR ATTITUDE AND YOUR FOCUS WILL BECOME SHARPER.

We sold 304 head this week. Light calves not in good demand, but big calves and yearlings were. (the bigger the better.) Quality still a big factor! Not many bred cows and pairs for a tesst. Cows and bulls $1 to $3 higher than a week ago! Next Week we should have a good numbers and good buyer attend should be a good sell! COME EAT SOME BBQ.

Thank you, Sonny Shores

In an effort to provide better service it would be greatly appreciated if the horse consignors could arrive prior to 10 am in order to get the horses tagged in and ready to sell first.

**We have recently been notified by the AZ Department of Agriculture that the import requirements have changed. All cattle crossing the state line must have a prior import permit (602-542-4293), livestock inspection certificate, and a health paper. If you have any questions, contact the state vet at 602-542-4293.

As per ADA: We are no longer accepting fresh brands or no brands unless inspected at point of origin. NO EXCEPTIONS! 

As of December 31, 2003, US Secretary of Agriculture announced that effectively immediately USDA will ban all downer cattle from the human food chain. In light of this announcement, effective immediately our market facility will no longer permit non-ambulatory (USDA has defined non-ambulatory as disabled and unable to stand, walk or rise on their own), or bad/cancer eye cattle to be off-loaded at our livestock market nor will they be sold for slaughter.

 

We would like to thank our buyers and consigners for their continued support.        

God Bless The Cattlemen!!
