This market has been all over the place. Read something over the weekend that they thought we had put the bottom in and we should see some slow increases to actual feeder prices. Some are calling for cull cows to head even farther down. Who knows???
I will have freezers full of ground beef before I give them away.
We bought about 30 broken mouth cows and calved them out this spring. Some of the cows could stay around to have another calf but several need to take a ride. As I said in another thread we are weaning the calves off early and will try to heal them up and put some weight on them. Might roll the dice again if cull prices head that far down.
I did about 35 broken mouth cows this last spring. The cows left 3 weeks ago. Straight to the plant. The calves left last week. I am real glad they all left when they did.
