[QUOTE="jkwilson, post: 90106, member: 969"] I have some I'll sell for $1.50 a pound on hoof. :shock: Way high. Look in the paper and see what fat cattle are selling for, and that's your fair price on hoof. I've never considered adding the haul bill to the locker since the market price includes hauling them to the salebarn. We typically sell by hanging weight adjusted to live weight prices. Most people figure around 60% yield so market price of .85 divided by .6 gives you $1.41 hanging weight price. Our cattle yield well so we benefit without the buyer getting a raw deal: They pay for what they get and we get paid for the meat we raise. [/QUOTE]
