First reported sale in recent weeks so an accurate price trend can not be established. Good to very good demand for today's offering featuring a hand full of loads and many packages, including fall calves. Lots of light calves with the potential to go to grass and these type of cattle continue to be very sought after as grass time is only a few weeks away. Quality varied quite a bit today, especially on these light cattle. Flesh condition mostly moderate to moderate plus overall. A few consignments of replacement heifers available but not all going back to the country. An active market with quite a few buyers and some farmer feeders attending the sale. Watch local listings for the next feeder cattle sale.
