Besides feed cost being up, the processor went up on the kill fee, and the per pound butcher fee, AND he charged extra this year for requesting extra sage and red pepper on the sausage, AND the curing went up. I know they got bills to pay too, but it was a surprise when I hauled them in.
And this cost includes feeding alot of free tortillas and bread. BIL has a bread route up in Fort Smith, so about once a month we got a free batch of expired stuff. Wasn't near enough to make a big difference though.
