[QUOTE="stocky, post: 1051573, member: 1150"] Sold calves yesterday. All bulls, no steers. 400 lb black bulls brought 1.95 per pound. 545 lb yellow 1/4 to 1/2 longhorn bulls brought 1.55 per pound. 488 lb 1/2 longhorn yellow bulls 1.52, 430lb yellow 1/2 longhorn 1.68. 350 lb 1/2 black and 1/2 jersey bull 1.8750 per pound. Heifers yellow 1/2 longhorn 635 lb 1.35 and 508 lb yellow 1/2 longhorn heifers 1.52 and 1 crossbred black heifer 435 lbs, 1.65 per pound I sold the calves early due to hot, dry weather and a huge acorn crop that is already falling like rain. Like others said, there is a big hit after 600 and a real big hit after 700 lbs. Also, there is a difference in the price hit, depending on how big the demand for calves is. With a huge demand, like now, there is less price hit. When there are too many calves and less demand, there is a huge price hit on bulls [/QUOTE]
