The last sale was 3 weeks ago so no comparisons can be made. There was a very good demand for the large offering of today's feeder cattle which made for a very active market. Lots of buyers on the seats as well as active biding on the internet. Flesh conditions ranged form light fleshed cattle coming off grass with a few moderate plus back-grounded cattle. Several long strings offering the buyers the opportunity to purchase multiple loads of one owner cattle. Today's quality ranged from very good to a few instances of plainer cattle. Next feeder sale will be in two weeks, August 14th. Stay safe.
