[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 318176, member: 968"] Aplusmnt figured out his cost - I generally just figure it costs me $1000 to get heifers to breeding age. There is more to it than just the feed. If you purchase cattle, you have a write off on taxes and/or depreciation. So, we do both. Rarely purchase open heifers, generally prefer buying young cows, but bred heifers work too. I like to buy cows, I can check on our ASA web site & see all her offspring born. If no calves are listed for each year, or skipped seasons - we pass on her. [/QUOTE]
