[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1623121, member: 25884"] Corbitt Walls latest feeder flash had some results at a few sales and said that some real good fleshy cull cows hit in the 90's at a sale in Ks and a bull in very good flesh but not overly fat hit 1.19. Won't see that here right now, but the slaughter plants that kill culls are crying for cull cows for the ground beef needs. My son and I were talking that we don't have any cull cows to sell, as we were shipping them right along instead of feeding them over the winter. We have one bull we are talking about selling anyway, so he will be going as soon as it looks a little better here, since it will be a little bit of a job to get him back to the farm to get him in. I have been telling all my dairy farmers that if they have culls, the better fleshy ones need to go now. We had a cow that we were going to ship and decided to hold her til the next time we sent some.... Went out and found her just out flat dead. She was old, but seemingly in good health. Had raised a calf, weaned it off and was just waiting for the next time we took some cattle. So that did it, now as soon as we decide that they need to go, they are being sold. Anyone that loses a calf, if they look decent, will be gone except if there is a REAL GOOD REASON for them to stay. [/QUOTE]
