This was one the most well attended and successful sales to date for this sale. The consignment requirements are very rigorous for this sale. The cattle consigned must be by an A.I. sire out of an A.I. sired dam and all calves must be A.I. sired, as well as cows bred back A.I. These requirements impressed many individuals and they were ready to purchase the cattle. Many trailers left the facility empty because of the strong demand. Cattle sold into six states.
