[QUOTE="M-5, post: 1384958, member: 23550"] the price of the animal is pretty much the same , what you see is what i call the benchmark where a calf's value is based on futures with each individual either influencing a higher or lower price. lets say a calf is worth 500.00 if he weighs 500.00 # that's 1.00 a # if a calf weighs 400# he is still valued at about 500.00 so his price per pound would be 1.25 a # , It is more complicated than that when you get to heavier calves in the 700 to 1000 pound range but for light weights its pretty close [/QUOTE]
