[QUOTE="tcolvin, post: 1844513, member: 42820"] I got her weight close, I missed her 5 pounds. I think I may have messed up on her description. The guys unloading couldn’t get the back trailer door open and while I was on the rail they came to me while I was filling out the paper work and ask if I had a pair of pliers to pull the pen out of the slide bar. I told them they didn’t need to pull it out and stepped off the rail to go to the trailer door and when I got on the ground, the guy logging in the cattle hollowed down to me, “is that a cow or calf?” Before I thought I said “cow”. Actually she was still a heifer calf, but at 28 months old, maybe a cow is how she should be classed. She brought a far cry from the last calves I sold, calves brought $3.15 average (one $3.51) and her $1.40. Would calf classification fit her or would the buyers pick up on age verses calf. I would think so maybe? Any way she’d is gone. I didn’t think anymore about it until I was down the road aways and I called them but they had put her with the cows. I didn’t ask for her to be moved as it took me a hour and a half to get to unloading pen and there were 15-20 behind me. I couldn’t stay for sale due other appointments. What is y’all opinion,. Cow or heifer calf? [/QUOTE]
