Open Replacement Heifers

With weather and machinery issues, we just got these heifers sorted off and home from the feedlot a few days before we clipped them and took their photos and videos. Because of that we haven’t decided exactly how to break the pens, since we have seven Balancers and three Purebreds. Right now, we just have them listed by tattoo, but we will decide on their breakdown before Sale Day.

We will auction off each pen, with the winning bid taking as many as he/she wants in the pen, at the final bid price for each (i.e. “times the money”). If any heifers are not taken, the remaining one(s) will be auctioned off in the same manner. We will do this for each pen.
