[QUOTE="onthehoof, post: 280543, member: 4773"] We bought these fellas for 100.00 each - (not the jersey, the calves) They were bulls when we bought them, but are now steers: [img]http://cattletoday.com/photos/data/503/calves_069.jpg[/img] This one we had to pay more for, we gave 500.00 for her, but figured we got such a good deal on the calves that she would repay us with calves herself: [img]http://cattletoday.com/photos/data/503/hereford_calf_heiffer.jpg[/img] This one my friend bought, she gave 600.00 for her. Not sure what kind, I thought a hereford x maybe. She is 4 yrs. old (and did I mention NOT fun to load into the stock trailer....) She is just here temporarily until she gets her fence in order. I told her if she gets out, they might as well shoot her (a real pain in the &*#, this cow is) I think she got a good deal on this cow, too bad she doesn't know anyone with a bull : [img]http://cattletoday.com/photos/data/503/calves_084.jpg[/img] Here is Lilly, we're gonna keep her around for a while. We know we paid to much for her (950.00) because she was from a proven milk producing herd. She is bred and due to calve in March. She is bred to a Shorthorn. (I AM MAKING BUTTER I SAY!!) (lol): [img]http://cattletoday.com/photos/data/503/lilly_and_star_042.jpg[/img] None had ever been grained; only hay and pasture. We feed hay and a mix that a good friend of mine sells to us that has cows. Ground corn, vitamins minerals, etc. so hoping to put some weight on everyone (except that big one...lol) [i]Now before you slam em' too bad[/i] - realize we are not big cattle ranch people. We have a family of four, and our only goal is to keep the freezer full. :D [/QUOTE]
