[QUOTE="Bigfoot, post: 1253316, member: 17956"] I will weigh in a little here. I'm seeing tons of high priced calves come thru the yard. The top end is over priced. The bottom end is really really over priced. When the correction comes, it's going to hit the lower quality cattle first. When we get back to a more recognizable market, a low quality calf is going to have a hard time paying momma's feed bill. Input cost aren't going to drop just because cattle did. IMHO, you want to top the sale, everytime you haul a calf off. It's important now, and it's especially important in lean times. There really aren't a lot of corners to cut on raising cows and calves. My best cow cost me as much to maintain, as my worst. I'm not saying all my cows are front lot cows. I am saying a high production cow will always be more profitable than a low preformer. [/QUOTE]
