As filed

Compared to two weeks ago, a light supply of feeders sold with sharply higher undertones. Demand was good to very good especially on the weights under 650 lbs. weaned with multiple rounds of shots and in suitable condition for grazing. Although most of the snow has melted several larger consignments are holding off for a special feeder sale in a couple of weeks. Slaughter cows and bulls sold with firm to higher undertones.
