[QUOTE="sim.-ang.king, post: 1321052, member: 14533"] Those 6's are making quite a bit more than 4's right now. Sold 2 week ago my fall calves. 1 Red Steer 615 1.64 1008.50 1 Black Steer 460 1.75 805.00 1 Black Steer 400 1.80 720.00 It cost just as much per head to raise that 615 pounder as it did the 400 pounder. Find the balance of cow size, and weaner size is going to be impotent. Of course if the cows feed conversion improves, that would mean you could have larger cows, and consume the same amount of feed. plus that efficiency would pass on to the calves going to the feedlot.
