[QUOTE="2/B or not 2/B, post: 702903, member: 7233"] Yes, the bull is old and sounds like a slaughter bull. The cow may have a few calves left in her, but pictures of both would be helpful. The price will depend on their weight and condition. How do the cows calves look at weaning? If she's just an average 8 yo cow you could buy her here on Craigslist for $450 and it might be smarter to sell her at the stockyard. The prices fluctuate widely, but I usually expect to get at least $500 for an auction cow and occasionally up to $800, which makes me feel like I've won the lottery. If she's some sort of superstar who raises giant calves you might breed her and advertise on Craigslist, ask $800 and be willing to consider offers. If a newcomer wants to get their first cow and raise a calf for their kids, they would want a gentle one like yours. When we sold our last bull for slaughter he weighed 1,900 lbs. and we got just over $1,100 for him. I was very happy with that because he was unregistered and older. Just my opinions of course!
