[QUOTE="mlazyj, post: 871238, member: 17406"] We had the first bred cow and heifer sale of the season yesterday . 100 hd black AI'd heifers from a proven program ranch went for 1300-1500 . 80 hd big black cows , short term 925-950 . Don't know how things are going to shake out the next month and a half . Quite a few guys are getting hit with lite calf weights as we're starting to ship up here . We had lots of grass this summer , but it was real wet and not much protien in it . I know several ranches that are holding alot of heifer calves this year and planning on selling bred heifers next year . We've got aleast 2 ranches with Texas cattle on them up here . One guy bought a bunch the other that I know of has cattle from the 6666 ranch . Those are kind of on a care lease deal . they pay a set price for calves you wean and provide the bulls , you feed them . They are fall calvers , I don't know if these guys up here figured how much more they are going to have to feed to keep that cow and calf in shape till April or May . I don't think there is enough money in it , but that's just me. [/QUOTE]
