Things here aren't very good either. I'd pay 1400 for her, registered and all, but we are too far apart that trucking would bring her price down to 1000 to be about right. I don't see anything wrong with her either and older cows don't scare me one bit. If you can manage to hold on to her, sell her with her calf by her side in the spring, at a breeder sale. Although not the type of cow needed in the south, there may be some need for bred cows and replacements after all the hurricane losses are counted and not just in Texas, but Fl and other southeast states. Plus, there is the rumors that this may be a very tough winter here in the mid-atlantic states. Sure we get those predictions, but we had next to no winter last year and a few more mild ones the past few years, so it may just be there will be a need for breds in the spring. We are cutting more of our OLD cows this year, and I mean grandma cows with no teeth and such, because we have also had 75% heifer calves in the past few years. Gives you alot to pick from but not near as much to sell like we do as feeders. We are commercial but have some scattered reg animals here and there. We still buy some here and there when they are cheap or are nice and older cows often are cheaper than 2-4 yr olds.
