Problem we have also is there has not been enough calves to make load lots. Numbers are very low in this area.
Crockett is the big barn here used to sell 2 to 3 thousand head a week it is now 3 to 4 hundred.
This is going to be real interesting through the next couple of year's. We were talking yesterday at the barn (Livingston) most common reason people were not restocking or retaining was the drought totally changed everyone's idea's on stocking rates. No one thought anyting about a pair to the acre or two I know I didn't. Now I am at a pair to 4 to 5 and not going back up.
