No feeder cattle sale in recent weeks to develop an accurate price trend. A large offering of feeder cattle today, the majority of these were home raised. Quite a few light, green cattle suitable for grass or backgrounding and also many home raised, reputation replacement heifers, both loads and packages, all met with very good demand. Most cattle were attractive, clean hided and open haired. An active market with both buyers and farmers in the seats, farmers interested mostly in replacements. Watch local listings for the next feeder cattle sale.
