[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1390060, member: 25884"] 2 guys were predicting prices to get high, but not as high as they did. Tried to talk my son into selling a big bunch; I sold all my calves for 2 years and did not keep any replacements, but did not sell any cows except open ones. We did cull a little heavier but not like I wanted to. We have a "mostly his", some mine, and some joint. He has told several friends in the last 6 months that he should've listened to me, and one just said to me a couple weeks ago that michael was really sorry he fought me on it, and I said oh well, that's the way it goes and maybe we will get lucky again.... Actually, I said 2-3 years ago when I was selling all my heifers, and my son said I shouldn't get rid of all of them, I told him that at 2.00 lb they could go, the cows will have more heifers, it won't last for another 12-18 months and then I will keep them when they are .50 lb. I am glad that they are not down as bad as .50 but they are less than half of what we were getting. Yep hindsight is always 20/20 [/QUOTE]
