[QUOTE="cross_7, post: 967781, member: 8382"] i like to buy a few stockers when i have wheat pasture and have done well and not so well. I can say the same about cows depending on whether it rains or not. I may be wrong but here in west tx on say a 5 year average, stockers may make more money Cows are easier, probably more work but it's spread out over 365 days a year, where as stockers can be a's and e's til they are shipped. It's just bulls, replacements, hay, fuel and so on have gotten so high you have a bunch in cows With stockers you eliminate some of that but then you add in wear and tear on equipment, seed wheat,medicine,death loss,your time and so on. maybe be a wash ?
