00:05sort of feedlot cattle. Once again it was good to see many buyers that probably haven't been

00:09here regularly, they've returned, obviously supply and demand. So and we've seen anyway

00:19they're looking for breeding heifers, so any heifers with a bit of weight and breed in them,

00:23they want to join them there. The feedlot is obviously very very active in those heavier

00:27type cattle. It was quite strong. I knew I had to be quite vigorous in the bidding and that that
