[QUOTE="AngusLimoX, post: 778383, member: 3319"] :lol: Good one. :clap: I imagine that is a product you might be familiar with seeing as your brain appears constipated, then again you do have the runs with your yap!! :banana: Lurker - lets put some numbers on it - what is the "premium" on a set of uniform calves as opposed to disparate groups, assuming the same weight and all healthy. Some have said $25 a head ( I am assuming on 5-6 weights ). That seems high to me. Some of the operators that put these rag tag groups together spend almost nothing on breeding/meds/supplements or the initial purchase of cattle. They take the "grass in front of cow, bull behind cow" thing to the enth degree. And maybe, on a per head basis - their [b]profit [/b]is more than the people spending to produce uniform groups??
