Thursday, August 8, 2013 -  Special Feeder Sale

1344 cattle today sold on a fast track with 12 full pot loads featured.  Excellent quality and the huge jump in the futures market helped fuel the market.  Perfect weather for moving took the usual stress of moving cattle in August out of the picture.  No weak spots were found in the feeder market today.  Cow/calf pairs were also in demand.
