The weather was steady as it has been all spring at Lemmon, South Dakota for the Cedarflo Angus Production Sale. There was a diverse set of genetics available, all equal in quality. These bulls offered are raised with no creep feed and weaned on a high roughage ration but looked the part of herd bulls on sale day.
