| Quinte Cattlemen's Association Stocker Sale! Vaccinated, catalogued and Farm Fresh!
May 7th @ 11:00 am- Quinte Cattlemen's All Vaccinated Stocker Sale! As of Tuesday evening, May 4, the numbers consigned for our "all vaccinated" May 7 sale are in the range of 900 with the expectation that our offering will reach 1000 + by sale time. There will be significant coverage in the full weight range from 450 to 1000 lb. with strength in the grass cattle category and a strong representation of 8 to 10- weights - especially steers - with a large number of double moved cattle. As always, the vaccinations are predominantly with live vaccine with frequent added value vaccinations for Blackleg, Pasteurella, Somnus, and parasite control. Many consignors are prepared to guarantee heifers to be open. The strongest breed influence represented is Char/CharX but Angus[both Black and Red], Limo, Simm, and Hereford are all strongly evident, also. This sale will feature more large one owner lots than usual.
