Dairy Sales on the 2nd & 4th Fridays each month. Selling dairy replacement cattle AND dairy goats of all types including herd dispersals. In state & out of state order buyers, and farmer producers at every auction. Yards open Thursday 8:00 AM to 7:30 PM or starting @ 6:00 AM sale day.

T.B. TESTING

Even though Iowa is certified T.B. free, an ever increasing number of states require that animals entering their state be T.B. tested.   This is a 72 hour test and is best done on the farm.  Without this test, you are limiting your marketing capabilities and dollars.  Plan ahead - - call your vet at least a week prior to selling - - bring the test papers with your animals.

WATCH OUR SALES & BID LIVE FROM YOUR COMPUTER

               One of the most difficult parts of our job is to sometimes attempt to tell someone the quality of their animal was in the middle or lower end of the scale.  It's kinda like telling someone they don't have the prettiest wife.  Most everyone thinks their wife is pretty .......... but when you come to a dance in town you might see the difference.
               Price is reflective of primarily 2 items:  Quality and Size.  If they have quality without size, it makes a difference.  If they have size without quality, it makes a difference.  If they have neither size nor quality, it makes a real big difference.
               When viewing the prices below, keep in mind that we atttempt to list just about every animal that sold here today (the highs, the lows, and in betweens). The quality of the animal should be obvious by the selling price.
