[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1481043, member: 6291"] Even if you were to market them and some one would buy them it would not be profitable to hold them any where close to breeding age. The market will not pay you what you will have in them. I usually end up selling the bulls off first by just watching the market and their size. A lot of times a #500 bull will bring you the same as a #600+. At that point I bounce them. I leave the heifers out with the cows the longest. That gives me a chance to watch the heifers develope so I can see what I'm going to keep, what I'm going to sell PT, and what is going to go to the auction. The heifers tend to sell better for me if they are #600+. Your bulls will bring good money at the auction. It will be the easiest money you make. Selling to the public can be a real PIA. The $$$ have to really be worth it for me to hastle with it. [/QUOTE]
