Friday, March 6th Beef Feeder Cattle Sale
Here this past Friday we held our Special All Beef Feeder Cattle Sale. We sold 1870 with a nice run of cattle and a great buyer turnout. Market interest was very strong on all classes with an exception of cattle carrying excessive flesh as they continue to take a backseat.
As we move though with spring upon us, we will continue to see these grass cattle be in short supply. Please keep the early consignment calls coming in. With early consignments we are seeing more buyers driving a greater distance knowing they will have the ability to fill pot loads with the desired weight they seek. **Remember Early Listings go to the Western Papers TWO WEEKS before the auction and no consignment is too small to advertise**
Thanks to all the buyers and sellers for making this another successful sale!
