[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1773350, member: 40587"] I remember when the 3 -day old Holsteins calves sold for $10 at the sale. Dunno what they would now, as there are no dairies here anymore. Actually Br x Jersey and Br x BS heifers and cows sell for a little more than Br x Holsteins do, from what I am seeing. For the pure dairy steers they want to give these people on the deal, Holsteins would sellhighers than the othersk excpet maybe Jersey. There are people who buy just Jersey calves to feed out and put up to eat. They call them "sweet meats". LOL The particulars? What if a dairy told you they would give you all their pure dairy bull calves for free. These would be 2-3 months old, weaned off milk and eating like Calf Manna or Calf Starter. They also send you theor pb dairy heifers, and you feed them and raise them to breeding age, breed them to whatever bull you want to, give them back a week before calving, and when those calves are 2-3 months old, they give those back to you, bull and heifers, free and clear? Would you do that? [/QUOTE]
