I sold two F-1 (true F-1's Ryder) at six month's for a 1000 each.
That is salebarn price here. I have seen some crazy high prices this year.
I have seen bred heifers go for over 2000 regularly at the barn.
Neighbor couple miles down the road and called me to be on the look out for a couple he had bought that went through the fence. He had went and bought a trailer load from out of state.
 
well from what he told me he let them go to cheap.but he makes plenty of money off of them.if things work out im going to call him an take 2 more heifers.

Thanks for the inquiry.
19 head

Asking $1450 ea or $27,000 for all of them,

Weaned 4 weeks, they should average over 600lbs,
 
Springing grade Holstein heifers are going for $1100 to $1250 here.
Could buy a load and then put two calves on each one :idea:
What a money maker!
