[QUOTE="crossbredcalves, post: 1652685, member: 13352"] There was a replacement sale yesterday at our local sale barn in Charlotte, Arkansas (Northeast Arkansas). I sold two cull cows. One was an old yellow brindle cow that was about 15 years old. She got long-toed last summer all of a sudden and was acting like she was having trouble getting around. (at least she was until I had to catch her. Then she felt fine and made a run for it.) She weighed 665 pounds and brought .22 a pound. The other cow was a pretty good Longhorn cross cow. She was spotted but was built thicker than most LH I have seen. She was between 11 and 13 years old but mouthed as ShortSolid and checked to be in the first period. I expected her to be sold by the head, but she was sold by the pound. She weighed 850 and brought .35 a pound. Not exactly what I had hoped for but that's two less mouths to feed and more room for replacements in the future. Dad saw some young, bred, black cows bring $1000-1100. He said some black pairs brought $1900. A registered black Angus bull sold for $2200. A registered black Saler bull sold for $1400. Cull bulls averaged .55 a pound. I had started to sell my Santa Gertrudis bull but I am glad I didn't. His calves aren't showing too much ear and are growing good so no use selling him while he is doing the job I wanted. [/QUOTE]
