[QUOTE="Campground Cattle, post: 56682, member: 195"] I have found for every 5 calves sold it takes 2 or 3 to pay operating cost on 5 cows per year. Now I am established and everything is owned. With todays market thats 1000 to 1500 dollars profit on 5 mamma cows. There have been years also like during the 2000 drought it took the sales from 4 calves to support 5 cows. There is no exact formula with so many variables drought, floods, market swings, major equipment breakdowns and of course the loss of a cow/calf from time to time. [/QUOTE]
