Regular
Sale
185 cattle today along with
145 lambs for Easter. 84 males were about 1/2 bulls and 1/2 steers.
Grass weights were fairly popular with the lack of feed and slow growing season
delaying the higher ties to come. Big cattle are at the mercy of falling
futures market and dropping fed cattle prices. Easter lamb prices were
very competitive with the world.
