All of the above quotes are based on choice quality cattle. Low grade or inferior cattle are not represented.

Quote of the Week: COMMON SENSE IS THE LEAST COMMON OF ALL SENSES.

We sold 548 head this week, good demand on quality calves and yearlings, off quality cattle remain hard to market. Not many bred cows and pairs to offer. Weigh cows and bulls were $2 to $3 dollars higher.

Thank you, Sonny Shores

* If you need an inspection in Arizona, please call 800-294-0305.

If you are in need of a truck, the following trucks are available locally.                                     Mike Kreinbrink 208-867-0126, Billy Resor 384-5224, Gooseneck Hauling 520-560-7762, Joe Mike Clem 520-203-4468.

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!!
