As filed

First reported sale in three weeks a trend is not applicable. Demand was moderate to good from the buyers in the crowd with internet activity noticed. Nice offering of yearling steers and heifers on offer, the bulk of which came off the summer grass with some coming out of the grow yards. A consignment of "AI" bred heifers along with packages of bawling spring calves also sold in the mix.
