[QUOTE="dun, post: 445166, member: 34"] It depends on what feedlot buys the calves or if we retain any ownership. We've only had one bull over the years that calves didn;t grade at least low choice. We don;t put much pressure on selecting for carcass because we've pretty much selected for it over the years nad it isn;t an issue anymore. Al Vance is the president of our marketing group, but I don;t know that we've really gotten any extra for the higher grading carcass but it has allowed us to eat a lot better quality beef on our own table. We ultrasound or retained heifers shortly after weaning and before shipping out the ones we aren;t planning on keeping. The ultrasounding has caused us to ship a few that we had tentatively planned on keeping.. [/QUOTE]
