This is the first reported sale of feeders since the end of August so no trends or comparisons can be made this week. Todays sale consisted 0f over 700 yearlings and the rest were spring calves. This is the first big run of spring calves in the last month. Calves are moving to the sale as the weather conditions are dry and pastures are depleted. Good buyer demand for all classes of feeders today.
