Special 74th Anniversary Calf/Yearling BBQ Sale! No trend today, as there hasn't been a recently reported sale. Many load lots of both calves and yearlings, along with smaller groups in the offering today. CME markets dropping 4.00 today, causing demand to be sluggish at times. The next feeder sale is August 23rd.
