As filed

There was a full house tonight for the monthly replacement cattle special at Springfield Livestock. Sale highlights included a nice consignment of Brahman cows and bulls, a group of open replacement heifers ready to breed, multiple longhorn and longhorn cross herd consignments, as well as high quality small packages of pairs throughout the evening. Supply was moderate with good demand for all classes.
