$3.50 is on the low side compared to others in my area. I am not in high populated area. Like I said, I don't feed many 3-5/yr. I only feed out my Sept/Oct born steers because I have plenty of "lots" available for a small group during the summer. Mine have to be out of here by mid October because of all my breeding groups during winter months. So, not only is it economical for me to finish them at 12/13 months old, it is necessary management wise.
To me, 750# carcass is getting on the big side when you are selling halves.
