[QUOTE="bird dog, post: 1647794, member: 5381"] One of the benefits of taking them to OKC is that they don't co-mingle which to me adds un-needed stress and shrink. Up there they pen them together with their own feed and water source. The commission company man will watch them and feed them based on how they eat. If they are unweaned they will be fed less to keep from bloating up. If they are eating good, they get fed enough to regain their shipping loss. The commission man will sort them as he sees best to maximize the sale price. They are weighed as a group just before they enter the ring. [/QUOTE]
