[QUOTE="Heronfish, post: 1843305, member: 42393"] I just cannot grasp those two statements. And here is why. Why are they expensive? Because of they time and money it took to get them there and the opportunity cost lost in doing so. Add in what you could sell her for, given a bred heifer is at or near her peak value in an auction ring. And risk. Well, we all know that a first calf heifer is the most likely to have a problem calving or raising a calf. And she has a less likely chance to breed back compared to a mature cow. That's the risky part. [/QUOTE]
