I actually seen one of those "don't buy from this one" CL ads about this outfit.Yep, beware. I've never bought but know people who have some decent results mostly negative.
I don't know him he's close to my area. I've known two people who've bought groups is all. Several lost in one group, the other panned out okay cept a few opens. Just have to make your own decisions but I don't buy traded cattle myself. I don't buy from sales and rarely sell. I got burned bad on a quarter gelding about 20 years ago from a trader and learned my lesson the hard way.I actually seen one of those "don't buy from this one" CL ads about this outfit.
Not everyone's the same, but I'd have to get soaked hard to feel right doing that.
Unfortunately, probably a lot of those calves have never seen colostrum and exposed to everything imaginable by the time an unsuspecting buyer gets them.We have a guy that buys at Monday's sale and by Wed the "had colostrum and from great mother's" calves are on CL. I don't mind the flipping, but be honest that you have no idea what the calf had in it and that it was exposed to how many other calves and animals in the 48 hours since the sale....
Oh Lord yes!! Jump up on your trailer even if you're still moving along in line to unload..Who can forget the parade of "pinhookers" that approached your truck when you got in line to unload.

I have never seen those pen hookers that people talk about. They would be run off the property here.
Yep, a line of em on both sides jumping up on the trailer and waving their hands and hollering to get the cattle to turn around do they could see them. That always made me mad as it just got the cattle stirred up. Then here they'd come peckin on the truck window. Some of them would be in face till you couldn't hardly talk to the stockyard worker to fill out the ticket.Oh Lord yes!! Jump up on your trailer even if you're still moving along in line to unload..
Only a few places I know of here still allow it. Most have stopped the penhookers.I think it is a southern thing Dave. I have never seen them here in the midwest either. The barn operators would put a stop to it quickly.
