I do wonder what value some of the auction company's add for their vendors. I would have liked to attend this sale, but only became aware of it today when I bought Friday's Farmers Guardian. I have also tried for some time to find this company's website but nothing comes up in Google searches.

Calves are worth more than that! Amazing.
