backgrounding

Help Support CattleToday:

When we were backgrounding for feedlots out west we were getting about $.78 per head per day. All that we were responsible for was land,labor,water,etc. They were to supply feed, vacs, antibiotics, mineral, etc.

Does .50 a day per head seem reasonable to get for backgrounding calves??? feed and meds.suppied by others...

If you are asking for that money - you are playing a losing game.

If you are paying that money you will run the other guy out of business.

In either case the answer is an absloute no.
