[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 318126, member: 694"] The problem is most people don't look at the real cost of raising that replacement heifer. The cow contributed nothing to the bottom line for two years that cost. The heifer you retained contributed nothing to the bottom line for two year that cost. If you look at the upkeep cost of the hiefer and the cow until they give you return on capital it is pretty expensive to raise your own. You have two cows for every heifer you retain that paid nothing back to the operation for two years. [/QUOTE]
