[QUOTE="herofan, post: 1065662, member: 17843"] I have a friend who mentioned that he recently sold a couple of 2 yr old steers. He sold them to a friend who buys and sells cattle for a living. He mentioned that he gave him 50+ cents a pound for them and that he was pleased. Ok, after I fell out of my chair, I asked a few brief questions, but I could tell the conversation was about to get confusing, so I let it go. In today's market, I though you could take one in with one leg and an ear off and it would bring more than that. I checked my local sale barn report, and they were between 119 and 192, depending on weight of course. Then I saw a section called slaughter cows, which were between 59 and 80. Could this have been what his steers were categorized as? What causes these to be so low? Greenhorn question, I know. :oops: [/QUOTE]
