As filed

First reported sale since spring so an accurate price trend can not be established. Very good demand for a couple strings and many loads and packages which made up today's yearling offering. The majority of the cattle were off grass in light to moderate flesh. Quite a few test open heifers offered as producers start PG season. Quality varied today, from plain to attractive. An active market with many buyers attending the sale today which included a customer appreciation lunch. Watch local listings for the next feeder cattle sale.
