[QUOTE="Tim/South, post: 1270904, member: 17986"] Fat prices have been slipping for a while. Feed lots are afraid to buy the high priced replacements. Stocker operators have to take what $ they can get to keep some cash flow and hold onto the feeders they can in hopes of a better market. Stocker operators can not afford to pay high prices for calves if they are not getting a good prices for their cattle ready to go on feed. Our prices here in the southeast always drop some in the summer. Good calves bring a little more than the common calves. Some reports of mortality from summer calves from the southeast being as high as 10%. Prices should begin to pick up the closer we get to Labor Day. The calf market will usually be flooded in October and prices will drop a tad. Buyers will be a little more picky. [/QUOTE]
