“UNBELIEVABLE”, “sensational”, and “phenomenal” were just a few of the words used to describe last week’s annual weaner sales.

Friday saw the last day of a very successful 2021 weaner sales at the Hamilton Regional Livestock Exchange, (HRLX) with independent agents auctioning 1776 heifers to conclude the week.
