First reported sale in three weeks a market trend is not applicable. However as sharply higher undertone was noted on all weights on hand. Demand was good with several buyers in attendance and bidding was active from the internet. Bulk of the sale was longtime weaned calves with some bawlers in the mix with majority selling in light flesh. Next week will be a regular sale with Special calf and feeder sale on Jan 4, 2022.
