[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1636805, member: 25884"] Our cull cow market here has been up, in the $.50-75 / lb for cows going through the market. That isn't too bad a return, if she is in good flesh 60's and 70's has been common. I would ship them now, and either replace with another cow or 2 or just let the extra grass accumulate in case of drier conditions. And congrats on getting the registered heifers. They are probably a nice group to work with if they are that "pampered". Except that my friendly heifers are a PITA to try to drive anywhere.... gotta have a bucket. Most of the time that is good though. Biggest problem you might have with retaining some heifers, is having enough places....and space between.... to keep them and the bulls far enough apart when everyone starts feeling their "cheerios".... Sounds like you are doing great. Keep us up on things. [/QUOTE]
