Last sale was two weeks ago, stronger undertones on the heavier cattle, with a limited test on the lighter cattle. Most of todays offering of fall calves were long timed weaned and fully preconditioned. Todays yearling cattle were off grass, light to moderate fleshed and offered buyers attractive weigh conditions. Several long strings of reputation yearling steers made up the bulk of todays sale. A good crowed of buyers made for an active market. Excessive temperatures this past week has been tough on livestock. Pasture conditions are deuterating due to extended dry conditions in the area. Next feeder sale is in three weeks, August 18, 2023. Stay cool, pray for rain and enjoy your beef.
