[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 1803169, member: 1682"] Yep. White and buckskin cattle bring the premiums in Canada. No one in North America pays more for feeder cattle than the Amish and Mennonite farmers in Southern Ontario with 50-100 head feedlots. As was told to myself and others by a very well known auctioneer/order buyer, those guys have been known to lose $200 a head at times, as long as they have bragging rights of having the best looking pen of feeder/fat cattle in the countryside against all other Amish/Mennonite neighbors. It's a competition among them every year. Some auction marts publish the names of the producers with the highest selling cattle for the week, in their market reports, just so it's official who has the high selling cattle. [/QUOTE]
