[QUOTE="bird dog, post: 1175825, member: 5381"] I love it that they get docked but then again I am in a southern climate. I buy everyone that goes off cheap. In my experience they gain about the same on pasture as anything else. Look at this way, would you rather buy a #1 calf for 3.00/lb and sell him for less money per lb as he gets bigger or buy a 1.75/lb calf that sells for the same when he is 300 lbs heavier. Even if is daily gain is 10% less. the math works in your favor. It is one of the few times that an individual has the advantage over a order buyer who wold be fired for buying one. I wish I could find more of them. [/QUOTE]
