Welp, last of the cows will be gone tomorrow, going to be up before daybreak for a dang long trip... Definitely going to be an empty nest around here. Poppy, Robin and their calves went to my neighbor's place yesterday.. Poppy is going to be a sucker for attention from him
It'll be quite a load, 5 cows, a young bull and 4 calves, and I have a heck of a mountain pass to take, then 3 ferries.. they'll be going to meet up with their mates I shipped last fall
Shipped a bunch to auction 2 weeks ago, prices were good, 3 first/second calver pairs were $3550 CAD, and 8 and 12 year old with calves sold for $3150 CAD.. couple steers and a heifer, prices were decent for them too... Bull went for $1.70/lb at 1805 lbs.. $400 short of what I paid for him 4 years ago
