First reported sale is several months so an accurate price trend can not be developed. Very good demand for this light offering consisting of a handful of loads and packages. All cattle came off the grass and flesh condition was mostly light to moderate with some fill seen at times. Varied quality, especially on packages. An active market with the most activity on load lots and multiple loads of same weight cattle, putting loads together with packages today was difficult. Timely rain has kept grass plentiful and cattle are able to stay out on pastures. Watch local listings for the next feeder cattle sale.
