Good to very good demand for today's offering featuring many, many packages and a handful of loads. Most cattle were home raised, weaned and vaccinated and the offering included many attractive quality, green, backgrounding or grass type cattle which are very easy to sell. An active market with buyers and farmer feeders competing to own cattle. Much warmer temperatures expected next week which will be a relief after the artic weather of last week. No sale next week due to the Black Hills Stock Show, next feeder cattle sale will be Thursday, February 12.
