stockers = stock for a ranch/farm/large parcel owner
feeders = feedlot material
safe in calf = she's pregnant

Still don't get that term "heiferette" and I've been around this stuff all of my life.

You will be sorry you asked but here are some "Heiferettes"

Sorry to post these but I couldn't help myself since you asked.

That last will get you a discount

The term 'Heiferettes' probably has some slight variations across the country but we see them as heifers which are a few years old but have never had a calf - probably because they can't, not that they haven't been exposed to a bull.

That last picture is closer to what I consider 'heiferette" weight than are the others.

If I've seen worse photos, I can't remember.

I DID NOT ASK WHAT A HEIFERETE WAS! I simply stated that I didn't understand the term!
