[QUOTE="Little Joe, post: 1739094, member: 39122"] I bought a cow/calf pair yesterday for $920, works out to .68/lb, cow and calf weighed 1346. Big yellow short solid cow with a smoke calf. It was a herd dispersal and this cow was as gentle as they come, had a few more in that price range that i wanted to bid on but when they came through the door they tried to eat the ring man up so I passed. I knew the lady selling them and she said they will all eat from your hand, the waspy ones were probably just wound up because of all the commotion and were trying to defend their calf. The kill buyers here are real good and generally won't bid on them by the head if they're a pair or heavy bred, they give us farmers a chance to buy them first. On another note I get home from the barn and there is about a 600lb smoke heifer in my yard with fresh sale barn tags, tried to put it in the lot but it went through 2 fences and is now in with my fall weaned steers. I saw a neighbor at the sale yesterday so I'm betting it's his. [/QUOTE]
