[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1766179, member: 498"] I paid an average of right about $850 a cow. A few cost me $1,000. The lowest price was $725. The kill cow market has gone up combined with the fact that the cows put on weight. Most of the cows were one bid above kill price. I would have sold all 41 but this is rangeland and there are 7 pairs still MIA. We (B and I) sold what was caught on the first sweep. B always says it is a thinning, not a clear cut. Two are out with another neighbor's cows. They have been seen there. I will get those back when he gathers. I have a steer of his. Five are still where the group spent the summer. Cowboys were going to ride that again yesterday. I haven't heard if they caught any of mine. Some of those cows might be out into neighbor's pastures. Everything is branded so once they get gathered they will get sorted off and come home. And to make the numbers right there is one cow here. She was the last one to calf and had twins. She stayed here for the summer on milder range. We figured there was more up side to letting those young twins stay on the cow a while longer. So she didn't get shipped when the other cows went to the plant. [/QUOTE]
