[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 1222353, member: 852"] Which to keep and which to sell depends on - what you paid for each, what it will cost you to finish the cow vs the heifer, the current body condition, current market prices, market for purebred (registered?) Highlands... In reality, just pick one to keep and one to ship. The heifer will likely yield better due to breed, the cow may finish quicker depending on current body condition and frame, and whether or not she's pregnant. Probably not going to be a significant difference but if money is tight you might want to pencil it out and do some more research. [/QUOTE]
