As filed

No comparable offering from two weeks ago a trend will not be given for steers or heifers. First show of Spring calves off the cow today, buyers seemed excited to bid and an active internet. Bred cows, with calves at side, consisted mostly of black and bwf pairs. Demand was good for all offerings. Next Auction Date Oct 6th weigh up Auction
