[QUOTE="options, post: 708484, member: 12793"] Okay look at it this way I'm allowed x number of animal units in my feedlot because of my federal feedlot permit. A steer will finish on average 150 pounds heavier in the lot than a heifer. 1400 pound steer sells for $80 a 1250 pound heifer will sell for $80. Now between the 2 animal units I have a net profit of $49.50 more with the steer. If I'm out buying 500 pound calves I will need to pay $.099 cents less per pound for the heifer than the steer to have the same net profit for that animal unit in the end. [/QUOTE]
