most of my cows right now are just commercial angus with some charolais in them they weigh 1000lb on average and ive got some that are 700 and 800 pounds all about the same body condition 4 or 5. im liking the smaller cows they are more profitable for me the calves arent very big but they top the market suprisingly. i been going to the sales and see small cows that weigh 500 and 600 pounds some thin but not bad, im planning on buying some this winter and eventually have a whole herd of small black cows and run low bw angus bulls on them. im thinking these small cows will be more profitable because i can up my stocking rate and i believe they will be easier to keep fat.for example i saw one today black bcs 4 weighed 580 about 5 years old 3 months bred sold for $375.
