[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 107272, member: 1604"] The way we did it was the landowner/grazer furnished everything. Optional hay, grain, everything. Calves were vaccinated properly before delivery. Accidental deaths came off the total weight at the end. 2% was the allowance for sickness deaths. In other words:(If 1 calf out of 100 died from sickness he would be added back in the total weight at the average weight of all the calves at the end of contract) (If 3 calves died of sickness only two calves would be added back in) No shrink from scales to pasture AND no shrink from pasture to scales at the end.
