Reporter comment USDA

As filed

There was not enough comparable offerings from two weeks ago to create a trend so none will be given. There was a good crowd on hand today for good strings of yearling type calves coming off of grass with some packages of pregged open heifers. Trade was good with demand being moderate to good with a softer undertone noted due to the sharp decline of the CME board. Sheridans next sale will be a special feeder calf sale August 28.
