[QUOTE="Bez?, post: 243860, member: 4151"] Do your math at 85 cents - then plan on things going bad once in a while. Prices in Ontario? Remember, the price for all those animals is not that high price you might see. That is a one off. Lots of animals are going for less. About to be a possibility with all of the new BSE being reported. Sale barn prices for steers run in the "under a buck - to about a buck five" on average. You want the bigger prices you better have a pot load and they better be perfect - or else you go out with the bath water. If you want to ship to Ontario - you better have the big bucks - fuel is a killer. Final note - it is rare to see profit of more than 100 bucks per head - the latest numbers being kicked around by the various cattlemens groups seems to be in the 75 buck per head range. May be different for some and my be the same for others. But rest assured, you will not get to where your calculations are. If you make 200 bucks per head, you wil see somewhere in the area of 5 grand. How many here on the boards - from Canuck land doing this. Please raise your hands - I want you to be my mentor. I have been in the game for some time - I never made that much money on so few head. Have fun. Bez? [/QUOTE]
