[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 201592, member: 1604"] You are looking at it only with the perspective of selling feeders. I would certainly rather wean the 650 weight calves and ship them directly to feed than to wean the 450's and have to feed them that much longer. Those 650 weight calves took 77 cows to produce them. Those 450 weight calves took 111 cows to produce them. That's 34 more cows to maintain year round. And another bull. Yea, I would take the truckload of 450's if I didn't have to feed all those mamas either. :roll: [/QUOTE]
