[QUOTE="1982vett, post: 624330, member: 7795"] Wednesday's Sale Barn 3 - 6 year old bred brangus cows 5, 6 and 8 months bred averaged $560. Weight average 1340. (Thought they would do a little better than this.) 1 - 6 year old bred braford cow 7 months bred weighing 1275 brought $475. (Really a disappointment. I though she would be a hot item.) 1 - 2 year old first calf brangus, 3 month old black baldie calf, weighing 980 lbs together brought $850. (Real nice surprise) 2 - 8 year old braford pairs, month old calves, weighing 1345 brought $825 each. (Better than expected.) 2 - 8 year old braford pairs, split with one month old calve and one 2 month old calf. Cows average weight 1035 brought 42 cents ($435). The month old calve weighing 165 brought 1.525 per pound ($251.63) and the 2 month old weighing 225 brought 1.03 per pound ($231.75). Averaged together as pairs they brought $679.69. (Not as good as the others. Basic flaw was their bags, they started to blow last year. Didn't look to bad this year but this was expected. Calves brought more than I had expected.) Then 2 poorly cows. Neither seemed to be able to gain weight after their last calf. One raised a good calf and should have another in a month or so. The other didn't do so well with her last one and got one more shot. She had a calf last week, a little tiny thing that bought her a trailer ride today. They each weighed 945 lbs and brought 36 1/2 cents. Gave the little black baldie calf to a neighbor that has some nurse cows. Calf probably weighed about 55 lbs. Spunky little thing, you ladies probably would have loved him and though he was cute. :pretty: :kid: 2 black steers averaged 400 lbs brought 95 1/2 cents. 1 angus heifer weighed 435 lbs brought 75 cents. Some were a disappointment and some were better than expected. Overall they did better than my worst case scenario. Looks like, for now, pairs are doing pretty well. Just about any thing less than 7 months bred goes to slaughter. Heavy breds would probably make some money in a month or two. [/QUOTE]
