A mark market trend is not applicable as the last reported sale was almost a month ago. Demand was moderate to good throughout the sale with buyers bidding on yearlings and fall calves. Ogallala Livestock celebrating 73 years in business on Thursday with their annual customer appreciation BBQ cattle auction brought a good size crowd of buyers and spectators to the seats.
