[QUOTE="Tim/South, post: 1235839, member: 17986"] The sale I go to does not allow trader cattle. Order buyers come from far and wide to buy there. Home grown cattle are listed as SV on the screen. There are two other sales an hour up the road that take trader cattle. We have one auctioneer that sells pairs, single cows and bulls. He will call out anything he sees and will bring a cow back through if someone points out something he missed. I have seen him stop the bidding and tell a buyer that the cow has something wrong "back there", that he will sell them the cow if they want it but it has issues. Another auctioneer sells the stocker calves. He will point out a limp or issue. The sale barn owner watches everything and also points out problems an animal might have. They do not want the farmer type who is looking for a cow or two getting something that already has problems. [/QUOTE]
