Regular  Sale

 

625 cattle today.  The market was very competitive considering the weather we've had and the amount of mud it has caused.  This combined with feed shortage and expense, creates a little more risk than is usual for this time of year.  Cattle above 700# are slower to take hold even with rthe Merc showing life the last few days.
