I need to build more permanent pens here. Time seems to be scarce though.They look like they should grow well. Glad to see someone else uses round pen panels as well.
No I used a buyer. My work has been pretty busy lately. They're a pretty calm group so I'm happy so far. They came from a couple small farms so I'm assuming their used to being around people.Just bought some bulls that weight myself. Did you buy them yourself?
I could never figure out the profit in backgrounding calves between weaning and going to the feedlot. I mean... paying for seven hundred pounds of grain to get an extra one hundred pounds of gain just never penciled out for me. Paying more per pound for weaned calves than what you can get selling them at nine hundred or a thousand pounds. How do you make it work?What do you plan to supplement them with this summer?
That info makes me feel good. These were a little over 1.80 for 409 avg. You know better than me what you're doing so I'm not far off.I bought a few black steers and 2 bull calves today weighed 433 and cost 181.45. Worked and put out on hay before dark. Will be put on mostly grass this summer
I'm not sure I know much but looks like we are close.That info makes me feel good. These were a little over 1.80 for 409 avg. You know better than me what you're doing so I'm not far off.
