The auctioneer calls the bids in a cadence to keep you interested and paying attention. It is traditional but it does help keep the buyers focus. The better the auctioneer is there better the prices.
Where in Georgia are you, and where is this sale? I’ve been going to livestock auctions most of my life, and we have a nice cattle auction here in Carrollton every Tuesday morning.
That’s a really great tip you gave, to go on the second/fourth weeks when you want to buy, since the crowds will be smaller. And I bet that if you’re going to sell at auction, sell on the first/third week since the crowds would be larger! I hadn’t ever thought of that! Thank you!
I know this is over a year old video but I just found it. I am a city dweller. Thank you for taking your time to make this video. Best wishes to your and your family and your farm.
You made a very helpful video we have bought a couple of acres of land and we're going to put live animals on our land we definitely have to look more into this option stuff we have never been there before
Thank you so much for this video. I haven't been to an auction yet and I'm a little nervous. Don't want to get caught paying high dollar for something. Your video helps me feel that I can do this. I'm sure I'll calm down and be comfortable with it within a few auctions. Thanks again.
We're glad this helps! We have been known to get caught up and pay too much for animals once or twice. Sometimes if the prices are too high, you just need to come back the next week. Thanks for watching!
Thank for the post. I've been to dozens of livestock auction barns but I've never been to a night auction. All the livestock auctions in my state, that I know of, are in the day. Monday thru Saturday there is always an auction SOMEWHERE. I've only been to one where they sold chickens but the video showing the chickens in round laundry baskets is a great. That would be a great, CHEAP way to move chickens. I don't want to be offensive to Georgia but the auction you showed seemed a little low rent. I've been to two in my state that were falling apart but the rest were in top shape. It might be that I'm from the north and you need good buildings or you will freeze to death in the winter. :-)
+aCycloneSteve Yes, that particular auction is pretty low rent. It's held in an old chicken house, I think, and it's been there forever. But it's about the best in this area of the state for the volume and variety of animals. But to be honest, you still freeze in this place in the winter and burn up in the summer!
If the livestock cage is down towards the front, don't sit that close. First thing that alot of them do when they come out is cut loose and spray a stream, especially if they are nervous. Sometimes they can jump or things just happen, so better not to be right up near the chute/cage.
thanks for this video very informative! if you dont mind me asking what did you pay for the bunnies? i have been looking to get some but not much around here i dont think i will have to check
just met a lady at the 4h fair the 2015 16 17 showmanship and a lot of other awards her daughter that is lol but she said she has as many Californians as i can handle would be ready for freezer in mid September said said her daughter would sell them cheap so fingers crossed its just to hot where in Michigan right now for shed animals! wouldnt mind breeding a few and out some in the freezers
Great information, would anyone know what the auctioneer is saying, tried following one online and the animal was bing sold in cwt what does that really mean
Raising and selling feeder pigs seems to pretty much have gone away in GA. Forty years ago I had 6 sows and would take 20 or 30 feeder pigs to a sale in Cochran, is there anywhere in Ga that sales lots of pigs or is that type auction no longer around here.
j rob The only auction I've ever been to in Georgia where pigs were a regular item was in Reynolds, Georgia at the Rock Ridge Livestock Auction, but I haven't been there in years.
I would imagine selling a high amount of any animal would be very hard to do if you had to find every client. so if you raise 50 calves a to around 14 months of age, do you think you would actually sell them all at auction, and if you did would you be making good money on them or do you get low balled?
Those kind of numbers would probably need to go through a cattle auction that does a high volume, or even a broker. Most people I know who sell that many cows sell directly to a feed lot in Texas or Oklahoma. A cattle truck comes to the farm and picks up all the cows at once.
Lots of tricks here; 1-Hard to understand the auctioneer. 2-It is so dark that you cant see exactly what you are buying. 3-Everything is fast ,fast ,fast. 4-If you have no experience, you can lose money.
Look at what we’ve done. We dragged them to the market. They were night and sold. This is what we did to them, and some day we will hang our head in shame.
This is a video for somebody who has never been to an auction, but is planning on going soon. There are a hundred auction videos on YT that just show the auction itself, but without some explanation and instruction they don't teach very much. Thanks.
No, they are not mean to the animals. Animals are much more resilient than you think, and you must remember that the owner of that animal is sitting in the audience too, waiting for it to sell. No-one is going to mistreat an animal in front of it's owner.
Puke Grenade I mean a 2300 pound bull is built to take a lot more pain than a fucking chihuahua. These people are oblivious to the cattle/ farming industry

Why do they talk so weird?
Hello! Well maybe it's because we're in Georgia. :) But auctioneers usually go to training to be able to call like that.
Do you know what's the purpose though? I can't even understand what the auctioneer is saying.
I'm not sure but I do know it is tradition. :)

This was the first livestock auction video I picked and found it to be very informative . Made it seem fairly simple .
Thank you! Livestock auctions are a lot of fun!

Thank you for this video. I am planning to attend my first livestock auction and this video was most helpful.

Thanks for watching! Sorry for the bad sound.

Thanks for sharing and you did a nice job on this post !!
I absolutely love a good auction!!!! I have paid low prices for a few "treasures" but generally its a fair price.
Best informative livestock auction video I’ve found and I really want to thank you, I feel ready to go buy a calf or two along with some goats.
JMichael Patrick So glad that this helped, good luck with all your auction purchases!

A very good video for those of us getting into it.
Thanks for posting! Now i know what to expect at an live stock auction!

Cool video, *very* informative, thank you.
Thank you!
thanks for this video very informative! if you dont mind me asking what did you pay for the bunnies? i have been looking to get some but not much around here i dont think i will have to check
I believe we got them for about $10 each, but we have gotten them cheaper since then.
just met a lady at the 4h fair the 2015 16 17 showmanship and a lot of other awards her daughter that is lol but she said she has as many Californians as i can handle would be ready for freezer in mid September said said her daughter would sell them cheap so fingers crossed its just to hot where in Michigan right now for shed animals! wouldnt mind breeding a few and out some in the freezers
I know right where that auction is
i have been to so many stockyards i can't remember the number tell you even if i have to
Great information, would anyone know what the auctioneer is saying, tried following one online and the animal was bing sold in cwt what does that really mean
I went to an animal auction yesterday and boy does the guy talk fast lol
Very very helpfull
This is a great video and a really neat little auction house. Where is this?
Hello! This particular auction is in Barnesville, GA. Thanks.
Raising and selling feeder pigs seems to pretty much have gone away in GA. Forty years ago I had 6 sows and would take 20 or 30 feeder pigs to a sale in Cochran, is there anywhere in Ga that sales lots of pigs or is that type auction no longer around here.
j rob The only auction I've ever been to in Georgia where pigs were a regular item was in Reynolds, Georgia at the Rock Ridge Livestock Auction, but I haven't been there in years.
Just one problem: Auctions aren’t open everyday
Nice

Markson here gotta get going
Ive been to that auction before
Brandon Paul the address plz. Thanks
Hwy 41 south of barnesville ga buggytown auction
Were did u get the beginning Pic bc that's the auction I always go to
Mud Truck This auction is in Barnesville in central Georgia. Thanks for watching!
What auction is this
Do they really stab you if you wrote a bad check?
How much does a cow or heifer cost
Wait did that baby goat sell for $62.50?
Was this in Barnsville Georgia?
This is pretty much how the financial markets work.
I feel like it would be better to just buy straight from the farmer
What is the address
Lots of tricks here;
1-Hard to understand the auctioneer.
2-It is so dark that you cant see exactly what you are buying.
3-Everything is fast ,fast ,fast.
4-If you have no experience, you can lose money.
Is that mountain city
I'm buying a black angus bull and a red Angus heffer
Yay! You will end up with some beautiful cow babies! Blessings on your efforts!
Angus cows are the worst beef ever, just poor animals... try a real breed
Daniel Thomason well they make the most money so I can see why people raise em.
@@danielthomason5685 They look the meanest. The Jersey is sexy!
@@danielthomason5685 and what breed would that be Mr. Know It All
and why.

See myself buying a pig here
this could have been a lot better had you not talked over the entire thing and let some of the auction speak for itself.
This is a video for somebody who has never been to an auction, but is planning on going soon. There are a hundred auction videos on YT that just show the auction itself, but without some explanation and instruction they don't teach very much. Thanks.
I think it’s great.
I like it the way it is. You can find plenty of auction videos but very few give such a good overview
It's 2023 and no one back then would believe the tragedy coming to the AG market and industry. 😥
I am ignorant and thinking of getting into livestock. What tragedy are you talking about?
they are so mean to the animals
No, they are not mean to the animals. Animals are much more resilient than you think, and you must remember that the owner of that animal is sitting in the audience too, waiting for it to sell. No-one is going to mistreat an animal in front of it's owner.
Camilla Johansson wrong!

Camilla Johansson do you know how thick there Hyde is
Auction Puerto Rico business animals property
Sad
Meats.
Live auctions is slave trade but animals are seen as disregarded meat :)
At the 8:00 mark, the kid sold for "6 dollars and a half". That is per pound or it is $6.50 for the whole goat?
