[QUOTE="Rydero, post: 1655926, member: 38101"] I never put much thought into maximizing return on cull cows. The way I look at it if I feed an animal it's guaranteed to cost me. The increase in value isn't certain. A single animal dying would wipe out a lot of "extra" income and a market downturn can quickly do the same. That said I agree it may pencil out with access to the right feed at the right price. I just chose to concentrate on the business I'm in - cow/calf not feeding cull cows. To me they're salvage - I take what I get and move on. [/QUOTE]
