ANOTHER GOOD SALE AT SOUTHEAST MS LIVESTOCK. 914 HEAD, PLUS A VIDEO LOAD OF 650# STEERS. THANKS TO THE MAULDIN FAMILY FOR ALLOWING US TO MARKET THEIR STEERS. THE MARKET REPORT ONCE AGAIN REFLECTS HIGHER PRICES FOR STEERS AND HEIFERS. STEERS WERE CALLED STEADY TO $10.OO HIGHER AND HEIFERS, STEADY TO $6.00 HIGHER. BUTCHER COWS AND BULLS WERE STEADY. 79% OF OUR SALE WAS FEEDER CATTLE. THAT IS A FIGURE THAT I WISH WE COULD HOLD STEADY. OVER 75% OF YOUR SALE BEING FEEDER CATTLE BRINGS IN ORDER BUYERS.
WE SOLD A STEER CALF FOR MR. BRADSHAW FROM ELLISVILLE WEIGHING 480# @ $146.00/100 – FOLKS, THAT’S $700.00! QUALITY PAYS. MATT BURT SOLD A 440# BWF STEER CALF WITH LOTS OF MEAT AND BONE FOR $150.00/100. C & M CATTLE FROM KILN HAD A 475# CALF BRING $144.00 FOR A TOTAL OF $684.00. ROCKING C SOLD 2 STEERS WEIGHING 490# EACH FOR OVER $700.00 APIECE. EVERY WEEK I GET ASKED, HOW DO I GET MORE MONEY FOR MY CALVES? A LOT OF TIMES THE ANSWER IS SIMPLE, CASTRATION FOR YOUR BULL CALVES IS #1, GENETICS AND NUTRITION ALSO PLAY A MAJOR ROLE. AS WE HAVE BEEN TOLD SO MANY TIMES, “YOU CANNOT STARVE A PROFIT OUT OF CATTLE!”
LOOKING AT OUR SALE RESULTS SHOWS THAT WE SOLD CATTLE FROM AS FAR NORTH AS UTICA, MS. WE ALSO HAD LOTS OF CATTLE FROM HARRISON AND HANCOCK COUNTIES. THAT’S A REFLECTION OF A GOOD MARKET. OUR MARKET DEPENDS ON YOU AS PRODUCERS. WE CANNOT EXPRESS OUR SINCERE APPRECIATION FOR YOUR SUPPORT ENOUGH. HOPEFULLY, OUR MARKET WILL STAY STEADY AND MAYBE CONTINUE TO IMPROVE.
WE WANT TO WISH EVERYONE A HAPPY THANKSGIVING. I KNOW THAT I HAVE A LOT TO BE THANKFUL FOR. WE ARE BLESSED BEYOND BELIEF! EVERYONE DO YOUR BEST TO STAY SAFE. WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING EVERYONE AT THE SALE ON NOVEMBER 30TH. REMEMBER – WE ARE CLOSED NEXT WEEK.
SINCERELY,
MIKE KEENE
