[QUOTE="marksmu, post: 742868, member: 9219"] I am in the same boat as you as to needing more cattle, but wanting them to stay liquid. I have excess pasture, and excess grass - well below my my capabilities, but I do not want to take on bred heifers as I do not have enough experience calving them, and pairs, cows, and steers are all selling very high right now. Also, I am always concerned about buying cattle that I dont know anything about, and them getting my herd sick. The last year or so we have not had any illness, and I am reluctant to chance adding some cattle that I know nothing about that could introduce an illness into my herd. I'm almost to the point of calling a buyer to find me what I want. Anyone have experience with using buyers? What do they generally charge, and do they actually get you what they want, or are they just another hand to pay who just gets you cows and tells you what you want to hear? [/QUOTE]
