Mason - San Saba April 9, 2020
Receipts totaled 627 head. Good rains fell over the area this week limiting receipts, but we are really growing some grass and having one of the better springs we have had in a while. The market has continued to be volatile but this week we saw most stocker steers and heifers sell steady. Feeder steers and heifers all sold steady. Packer cows were $2 higher and bulls were $5-$7 lower with no high yielding bulls on hand. Pairs and bred cows were in good demand with a lot of activity.
