Yes, yes, I understand and see it here. But this was a published report, posted by an Oregon member on a Texas sale barn. I question the validity and was wondering how someone so far away could be so certain that all were legit sales. tex, we both know the hype and b.s. that surrounds the...

You think so? Where did you find that information?

What does Sold To Floor mean in Texas? Most of reasonable prices listed buyer name and the crazy high listed as - Sold To Floor. Is that he same as No Sale in other places when the high bid doesn't meet seller's minimum reserve?

Murray maybe you could provide prices on emus and ostriches for those interested in chicken ranching in a big way. :)

Justin (the author) is most likely in junior high school with no real world experience, using information gathered from other online sources with no common sense filter. But his article is online now too, so it must be fact and will be cited by others. The blind leading the blind.

Sure there are. Years ago riding with my brother we passed a well heeled Doctor's hobby place. Brick McMansion, beautifully landscaped, manicured lawns and off to one side a pasture with 6 or 8 sheep. A picture perfect setting and my 12 yr old nephew lost it "Man there must be money in sheep...

No can't say that I have. How about you, are you seeing some in your area? Please add your general location to your profile. WELCOME to Cattle Today Forum and thank you for your first posting.

Speaking of organic: James Wolf 65 certified organic farmer in Minnesota pled guilty last week to wire fraud. It was discovered that for 9 years Wolf was buying grain and labeling it organic. It's estimated he netted 2 million per year in fraudulent sales for each of the 9 years. Guess he...

As is dwarfism.

Then why was your very first response about galloway and highland regardless of height? cattle under 42" and over 1200 lbs is an extreme outlier from the norm

Rmc: "Since highlands and Galloway are some of the longest recorded breeds worldwide I don't think they will be going anywhere soon." Once again Rmc is rewriting history, op specified mini and Rmc sends thread off the rails by being the first to change subject from minis to non -mini

I don't get it. What are you doing to me? p.s. IF it matters I sold 1/2s on a 3/8 Wagyu 5/8 Angus steer hanging 760 lbs at the butcher now. And will be using a home raised 3/4 Wagyu bull this spring. A retired dairy farmer friend started his beef cow herd with Wagyu embryos. He breeds A.I...

Go ahead, they're a good breed and another that has left Highland and Galloway in the dust. Personally I prefer F1 Angus x Hereford females over either pure breed.

Money. Go ahead and reinvent the wheel if you wish, it's a free country.

No, I mean like real money that farmers could actually see in 1911 ie herd of 50 cows 25 angus cows 25 galloway cows 24 angus calves to sell 1 angus cow culled 23 galloway calves to sell, 2 galloway cows culled that happens each and every year for 3 years. Now it's a 41 cow herd 22 angus and 19...

Commercial beef production always comes down to money. In the 1880s Angus and Galloway were on equal footing with the Galloway association first Canadian registry in 1872 and in the U.S. in 1882. In 1911 there were 35,000 registered in the U.S. In 2022 registered Galloway numbered 26,800...

Cute is subjective, she should've stuck with Healthy and Hairy. :)

Got some for sale? Where are you located billyB?

I love fried sunfish, but can appreciate sushi too. (yes, I like eating bait :)

Maybe for fullblood Wagyu beef graded prime+ sold to restaurants. Boxed beef spread on 600-900 lbs carcasses from Select to Choice is 7.5% (288 cwt to 309 cwt) I can't see more than a 10% spread (for a carcass) on top of the bonus price of "Prime Angus" as being fair to the buyer. p.s. Prime...
