I have a 3 year old open heifer that needs to go. I don't imagine she'd bring much at the stockyards, so I'm considering fattening her up and having her slaughtered. Does anyone have much experience with butchering older cows? I've always had younger steers, I know every animal is different, but I'd hate to spend the money for something not worth eating.
