[QUOTE="Toby L., post: 623809, member: 9048"] If I was going to raise a calf to butcher in 18 months, I would rather have a lot of meat then a little. I don't understand why people want to raise miniature cattle, or smaller breeds. I drove 60 miles a couple weeks ago to look at a couple 18 month old steers that the guy said wieghed around 800 pnds. I was shocked to see they were all 4-500 pnds, and he was trying to sell them for $800 a piece, it was a waste of my afternoon. curly haired herefords.... I went and looked at a couple 3 year old angus, they were around 800 pounds, I don't understand why. Bad genetics, or improper nutrition, anyway he wanted $500 a piece so I think I may pick them up later this week if there still around. [/QUOTE]
