[QUOTE="bird dog, post: 1599801, member: 5381"] I shipped 17 to OKC West on Labor Day and they sold Wednesday. Calves weighed the evening before shipping on my scales weighed 12435 lbs. I got paid for 12070 lbs so around 3% shrink which I consider pretty good seeing that they shipped 310 miles and stayed a couple days on a yard with mid 90's temps. They were penned together with fresh water and feed. They were preconditioned 65 days on pasture and about 7 lbs of creep per head, 4 days a week. 9 blacks, 3 whites, one yellow, one black motley. They were good calves but nothing exceptional. All commercial out of my Angus bulls. A little bit of ear on some. They had two rounds of shots and were implanted but they don't mention it much up there unless you have a large amount of calves in one draft. Heifers were guaranteed open. They split the group into 4 drafts. 5 heifers at 633lbs $1.27 4 heifers at 744 $1.27 5 steers at 689 $1.41 3 steers at 828 $1.34 Commission, feed, and beef pro was $422.09 or $24.83 per head. Net before freight was $915 per head. [/QUOTE]
