As filed

No recent test of market for an accurate comparison, a trend will not be given for steers or heifers. Demand was very good with several buyers and active internet bidding. Following cold, winter weather last week, the Sandhills are warming up fast. Next Auction Dates for April 19th Bred Cow Auction and April 26th Back to Grass Feeder Auction
