Hello board:
Thought I'd run this past the experts. I'm about to market my first bunch of calves.....around 20 hd. They are all yearlings, and weigh anywhere from 800 - 1100. (Had a few odd balls in the bunch, that were born later and are thus lighter).
I guess I'm looking for any pointers at the sale barn. I think most around here go through a commission firm, (need to be called a day or two in advance)? I'm assuming these particular calves will be marketed as feeders, as they are not completely finished? How about vaccination records, do any/most of you take your records down for your commissioner to view?
Just looking for any insight. Thanks in advance.
