Maybe there but at raywood they were around 1.60-1.75 range. I don't think any got up to 2.00.

I don't know how many you have but if you have very many and there is a 0.25 spread you could afford to haul them to raywood.

Premium calves brought it here in Livingston last week as well.
Seen the slip from a friend that hauled in some fine black baldie calves.
We talked about this market falling into correction last April.
Going to have to put a choice grade or better calf across the scales to get a premium.
My crystal ball sees this trend for the next couple of years.
Opening the import market to Argentina sure didn't help either.

forget cattle I was at a goat sale this week fat weathers around 3.00 a pound.
The more people from Mexico and the more Arabs we let into America the higher goats are going to go. Them little pigmy billy goats that were not worth 15.00 not to long ago, 2.65 a pound.

At the sale barn in Lockhart today. Calves going from $1.10-$1.60 The only one to hit that high was a black baldie steer. Not sure why, before he started the bidding on that one the guy next to him stopped and said something we couldnt hear. I didnt think it looked any better then the other baldies coming through but got an extra 10 cents a pound.

Cattle are falling but boxed beef is holding strong as is prices to consumers. Some part of the food chain is doing very well!

Classic cattle business. Give the producer just enough for three years to make him work for free the following seven! Lol.

I buy bulk in the restuarant business. Right now ground "angus" is running 2.30 a pound. Back last year when beef was high we were paying about $3 a pound. I am a guy who looks at consumer beef prices on a weekly basis because my other job depends on the price of beef as well.
