Today's Feeder Cattle Sale consisted almost entirely of Spring Calves contrasting with last weeks Feeder Cattle Offering of almost entirely Yearling Cattle resulting in incomparable classes. Very Good Demand with some new buyers in the seats and Good Demand on the Internet for Many Load Lots and Packages of Feeder Steers, Feeder Heifers, and a set of Replacement Heifers which all sold on an Active Market. Nearly the entire Offering was Home Raised, had Spring and Fall vaccinations and came straight off the cow. Presentation was attractive with calves featuring clean, shiny hair with no tagg, light to moderate flesh, and a favorable weigh-up. The next Sale is October 7, Weigh-up Cow Special, October 13 Special All Breeds Calf Sale with 8,000 Spring Calves on the books.
