Quote of the Week: HERE’S HOPING THE NEW YEAR BRINGS MORE RAIN, HIGHER CATTLE AND CHEAPER HAY!!!

We sold 516 head this week, Stocker and feeder cattle were steady with the sale before the holiday’s. The market looked pretty good Monday, but dropped on Tuesday and has stayed down for several days so the buyers remain cautious. Good rains on the desert look promising for the near future. Good cows mostly steady, thin cows higher.

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!!
