The last reported sale was March 13; a comparison can not be made. Good demand in the seats and on the internet for several load lots and large packages of mostly home raised, weaned, and fully vaccinated calves, carrying mostly moderate flesh. Several very nice loads and packages of replacement type heifers sold on very good demand, with some added interest from internet buyers early in the sale.
