[QUOTE="BC, post: 1650328, member: 67"] I just saw where you said she had balloon teats when she first calves. At 1460 lbs, she is bigger than most people want (eats too much, so higher maintenance), a good buyer will spot those teats and pass or just buy her as a packer cow. Each region has unique preferences. Here, a Charolais cross will sell par with a black calf and usually will weigh more at the same age. Don't get hung up on price per lb., look at total dollars. As an old feedyard manager once told me , "Son, around here we keep score with $ bills". Never forgot that one. [/QUOTE]
