[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 1099125, member: 3162"] I generally feed one out and put it on my own table. Not every calf lives. You pro-rate losses against the whole bunch of survivors. You are feeding that cow all winter before she has the calf. You are feeding the bull too. Innoculations. Fertilizer costs. Worming. Fence repair. Fuel. Tires. Property Tax!!!!! Processing fees. - and you have not even started calculating the feed bill yet. All the little things add up to a lofty sum. All the big things add up even faster when you are cutting the check to pay for it. What Bez said. What Dun said. There is a whole lot to calculate in. After I get that booger processed I have to pay the electric bill for the freezer too. Never really thought about that until now. Edit: I guess "to my dinner table" would also include the propane on the grill. It aint free. Neither is the cost of the grill. [/QUOTE]
