What a cluster, as they were bombarded with cows. In front of me was a tractor trailer double deck load out of Kentucky of 37 Holsteins packed in like sardines. I counted them as they unloaded and they were nice young cows as it looked like one had just dropped a calf, hopefully not on the way. Apparently while they were up in price the guy just got out of the business, maybe low on feed. Behind me was another tractor trailer load double deck out of Knoxville TN and at least 5 in line like me as I got there early and the rest of the day I am sure a lot more came in. One of the guys working there said they were getting cattle from the drought areas in the west. You get more out of your cattle taking them direct, avoiding the sale bill, etc., but every time I go it sure tests my mental psychic. Every few minutes the gun shots, heads laying around, you name it.
