[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1846038, member: 498"] Back when I was on the Washington coast I would ship 180 miles over the mountains to get a much better price. They had feeder special on Tuesday. I shipped weaned calves on Monday. Sale started at 6:00 pm on Tuesday. I spotted my calves at around 4:00 pm. They all had their heads in the feed bunk except 4 who were at the water trough. The calves sold real well. Ring scale they get weighed as they sell. This was a group only sale, no singles. The ring is big enough to hold 50+ 500 pound calves. Steak feed at 5:00, sale start at 6:00. and they would sell 3,000 calves in about 4 hours. [/QUOTE]
