[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 749442, member: 3162"] Not if they are pairs. Most of the time folks split them if they are commercial animals and the calves can be weaned. Locally, if no one is bidding on the pair it usually means the cow is aged or perhaps not suited for this climate (no one is bidding the cow up). The ring man can get more by splitting them and selling them seperate. When this happens, you can get the calf to graft on to another cow or else bottle feed. If they are not split, one bid buys them both. [/QUOTE]
