First reported sale in several weeks a market comparison is not applicable. Demand was moderate to good with a large crowd on hand for their 12th Annual Customer Appreciation BBQ Sale. Offerings included weaned fall calves with several groups of yearling feeder cattle. Some packages and several load lots in the run and some came off of early spring grass.
