As filed

Sale not recently reported therefor no market comparison: Good to moderate demand for feeder steers and tested open heifers; Today was also the first large offering of spring calves, which are coming earlier in the season due to drought in this area. The larger cattle and large groups of spring calves sold on an active market; many smaller packages sold on a lower market. Today's offering of yearlings and calves are coming off of grass in light to moderate flesh. Next sale is scheduled for September 30, 2021.
