[QUOTE="Double R Ranch, post: 31953, member: 411"] Here in California it is a weekly occurance to buy at the auction. All my cow are bought and sold at the local auction yard. Most people that I know or deal with buy and sell at the auction. We have atleast 2500 head of cattle every week go threw our local auction. I believe that atleast that many go threw the other markets in the area or close to it. Although I am pretty careful of what I buy I have gotten a few that were barren. But I also had many nice calves this year out of auction yard stock. The drawback to buying at the auction is that is is like a hospital. Every disease known to man is there!!! We make sure and give a dose of wormer and antibiotic and also keep the animals separate for about a month just top be sure not to spread any diseases to my healthy stock. [/QUOTE]
