January 24, 2025 Stocker Sale Report
Sale date: January 24, 2025 Sales Barn-705-653-3660
Quinte Cattlemen's Association Stocker Sale -
At present the committed consigned numbers for the Jan, 24 Quinte Stocker Sale are just
slightly above 725 with the likelihood that our total will reach 850 - 900 by sale time.
This is a vaccinated sale which will have an offering of excellent quality. The vast majority
of the cattle have received a modified live vaccine with frequent added value immunizations
for Pasteurella, Blackleg, [sometimes including Somnus] and parasite control. The dominant
breed influences in the sale are Char/CharX and Angus/AngusX [both black and red] with
significant Limo and Simm presence, as well. There is a good distribution of weights from
450 through to 950/ 1000 lb. Many consignors are prepared to guarantee their heifers to
be open and there is a significant number of double moved cattle. Approximately half of the
offering total at present is made up of larger one owner lots of 30+ [described in
more detail below] which should result in some larger ring lots.
