[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1782308, member: 498"] As with most things where you live has a great deal to do with things. I hauled a kill cow to the sale. Looked to see if they had any bred cows that would work for me (they didn't have any). Bought a burger and watched feeder calves sell for a while. The top lot I saw sell was 18 head of Char cross steers. They were green, long time weaned, double round of shots, weighed 487, and they sold for $2.42. That is $1,178 a head. Man sitting beside me bought two lots of 15 head each of heavy 700+ pound black heifers. He paid $1.69. I didn't write down the exact weights but at 750 pounds that woudl be $1,267. There was red steers weighing 500 that sold for over $2.00. There was 10 BWF heifers that were really the kind. I thought about buying them but didn't know where to put them. 625 pounds sold for $1.64. That was $1,025 each. They would have made great cows. [/QUOTE]
