As filed

Sale not reported in recent weeks so an accurate price trend can not be established. Backgrounded strings and loads made up the majority of today's offering which was met with moderate to good demand. A wide variety of flesh condition, quite a few cattle in heavy flesh which are a tougher sell. Quality varied also, from plain to attractive. Moderate to active market activity with a good crowd of buyers in attendance. Very hot and humid weather conditions for today and tomorrow with cooler conditions expected for next week. Grass and crop conditions for the area look very good and rains have been timely. Watch local listings for the next feeder cattle sale.
