Fortnightly Sale of Young Feeding Bulls, Store Bullocks & Heifers, Breeding Cattle Forward: 781 head of cattle Comprising: 301 Young Feeding Bulls, 473 Bullocks & Heifers, 3 Feeding Cows & 4 Breeding Cattle. A cracking entry of cattle for CCM Auctions fortnightly cattle sale sold away to another packed ringside.

Finishers obviously have their eyes on a stalling prime trade and strong bulls and stores were no dearer. But yearling and younger cattle continue to attract strong prices and are not affected as much as the strong stuff.
