[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1468276, member: 25884"] That's a good bit more than what they are bringing here. Most are in the 1.30 to 1.50 for 5 wt STEERS not bull calves. Wish we could get those prices but from here there is so much in trucking to get them to anywhere. Cull cows in the high 30's to 40's. Had a bred cow sale a week ago, and many were in the 6-900 range. Many were older cows from what I was told. I didn't go, we are trying to readjust to moving the cattle around from the 2 lost pastures this year and just getting a handle on how to handle some of the cattle that used to go to that one place for the winter. Have a real nice group of at least 10 heifer calves that we have kept back for future breeding. After the new year we will be able to better assess what we have, what we are gonna sell; we still have 50 to preg check and the calves to wean off. Been holding them longer and had grass to keep them on. The calves will get sold early spring I think, since prices this year have dropped a little again. Hears hoping 2018 will be a little more promising....and that we will get some precip to get the springs and water tables back up, or it will be a bad year. Might be good we are down a bit in numbers. [/QUOTE]
