As filed

There was quite the offering of home raised bred cattle with a handful of complete dispersions today. On hand were plenty of attractive first calf bred heifers after the dispersions. Several consignments of reputation ranches with females bred to reputation bulls on offer. A majority of the cattle will calve in February through March with a handful of April and May calvers thrown in. Top quality genetics and good condition were seen throughout the sale and the consistent bidding expressed that.
