I went to a registered sale in OK this weekend. they also sold 600 commercial breds,pairs. the breds were bringing 1500-1800 and pairs close to 2 grand for commercial cattle. I wish I hadn't sold all my heifer calves at weaning last year.
It can get a lot higher as long as people buy just to be buying and dont do their figuring first. Thats speaking for feeders and commercial men...dont know about registered. I guess as long as there are idiots with more money than sense it can go higher and higher...long as its black LOL...thats the way the registered business is. Too many of em (not all) arent concerned with profit and loss anyway
