[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 351730, member: 694"] Best I figure I can't raise one for less than 1200 bucks. I can hand pick Heavies for less than that or 3n1's for a little more. Third I can depreciate the cost or write off the cost of purchased cattle, there is no write off for that retained heifer that alone makes her a loser. I can depreciate the purchase price of the bought heavy for five years the whole time she is producing 5 calf's to sell, this cow has increase her profitability over the heifer by at least the purchase price due to the tax advantage if nothing else.
