[QUOTE="plumber_greg, post: 920413, member: 9115"] Kathie, I used to send my calves to a feedlot and sell on grids. WHen the margins got tight, I started selling feeders. I know your customers like your beef, but it's a lot harder than you think to raise CAB certified beef. The most I ever sold was 29 out of a pen of 100 steers and heifers, all black, all mostly angus. That was a good year, usually is around 20%. I've read about and seen steaks that people will say are high choice that they have raised but in reality most would be select grade beef, but still tastes good. I haven't seen your carcasses, so I don't really know, but I question your statement,"(and I have no doubt they would--but we don't sell to packers). It's a lot harder than you think to sell CAB. respectfully gs [/QUOTE]
