What ever someone is willing to bid at the salebarn!For the first time I have raised a Jersey steer and heifer, they are 15 months old and they are healthy and the steer is big and fat but the heifer is a little small. I'd like to know how much each of them are worth?

Where are you located?
Cattle value by breed will vary from one region of the country to another.
How did you acquire your 2 Jerseys?
Steers are priced by the pound.
In Minnesota a nice fat 1,000 lb Jersey steer is worth between 90 cents to $1 a pound. 1,350 lb beef steers 1.25 lb
More like $0.55 here. Last winter they ran a dozen 400 pound Jersey heifers in the ring and they literally couldn't get a bid at any price.Here the same steer is worth .70 tops.
