[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 6692"] No use going down to the local sale barn as there hasn't been a sale now for a month. Nothing has moved except cattle out to pastures and a few loads to the plant at a $400 per head loss. There could be a lot of cheap calves going south after the border reopens as the feedlots up here may not survive. > "Just go down to your local > sale barn and see what is bringing > the best prices.
