No recent test of market for an accurate comparison, a trend will not be given for steers or heifers. Demand was good with active internet bidding. Nice run of mostly yearling cattle coming off summer grass with a few bawling calves in the mix. Next Auction dates Sept 26th Special Spring Calf and Feeder Auction
