My load ready to go

Thanks I am real proud of this years loads.
I put in 258 head had zero deathloss and only 5 got sick(and they weren't bad). I only had two that I culled- one had a bad growth on its ear and the other turned into a little short butterball. I am going to eat those two.

If you expand the "more info " under the video
you can read all about them.

Around here they would starve to death on just grass.
 
just a real nice uniform set of animals.good job and what a good yr to have such a set with the high prices.
 
I weighed them 20 days ago- and with a full belly they averaged 2.2 lbs/day. I expect when they ship out(empty) and I take a 2% pencil shrink it will be right at 2 lbs/day gain-- right on my target.
 
There was a local video sale today- mine sell tomorrow

Heres todays ave sale results (as they would relate to my loads)

750 lbs $1.30
850lbs $1.29
890lbs no test

For east coast prices- those are UNHEARD of :) :) :)
I used to(for years) could take Ok sales results- find the average for like cattle and subtract .10 and thats what I could expect for a load.
Last month it was down to .06
This week its down to taking off .04

All I can come up with is the shortage of calves is narrowing the advantage- they are going to pay what they have to pay to get cattle no matter what it costs to haul them around.
 
:banana: :banana: :banana:

$135.60
$126.75
$120.80

Good thing cause I 'm not putting back in at these prices- that should be enough $$ to hold me this year if I stay empty.

Good for you. It's always good to see folks get paid for their hard work.
 
They were all bulls that we cut--
I have never been able to pencil out back grounding heifers over bulls/steers.
