[QUOTE="kenny thomas, post: 1717098, member: 8993"] Rydero, I'm gonna bet most producers in the southeast do not average a weaning weight much higher than 500lb on heifers and 550 on steers. Currently 500 lb heifers are around 1.25 with many less. That's $625 550 lb steers around 150-160. At 1.60 that's $880. That's an average of about $750 per calf. Many many producers will not meet that average. I wish I could grow and sell calves like Silver does but I don't know of anyone here that does. So I try to cut costs to make up a little of the differences. I'm definitely not the most profitable but I'm way above the average in this area. [/QUOTE]
