[QUOTE="rocfarm, post: 1838054, member: 42715"] 7 of the 14 were born on the farm, so that should clear things up. But not lying. That's what I paid. Had calves mixed in and it was during that drought in Texas two years ago when people were lined up at the sale barns to sell. I had rested my place for 6 months and had stockpile. Used tubs to get them to the fall rains then had them on stockpile through winter. Still haven't fed hay this winter to the remaining 8, but we'll see if it hurts the breed back. Got lots of Burr clover and winter grass out there, though. And they haven't been hitting the tub. Only 1/4 through the 225 lbs tub I put out first week of November. Here is proof of half my purchase. Bought the other ones at other locations. My bull was a yearling and $1800. Some of them were calves, obviously. And that $450 cow had a bull calf two months after I bought her. The pics are of her current/ second calf and her first calf, which is now a bull. The 665 lbs cow on that receipt that I paid $600 for fattened up, bred, calved, but lost her calf. But I got $1080 when I sold her, so got the feed/care money back. The BWF cow I still have. Her black heifer calf should give me a new baby this year and she also had another nice heifer calf, was in good condition in November at calving, and should be bred back:). Would have had a shot at 7 calves this year and 9 next year, all on those cattle, if it hadn't been for the drought last year forcing me to sell those 6 I sold. [/QUOTE]
