[QUOTE="SPH, post: 1547392, member: 20580"] It's a rough market right now for females. We lost some summer pasture for next year and will have to cut back on the number of females we have. We already have culled pretty tight so will have to make some tough decisions so we're going to calve out what we have now and see what we have for calves before we have to turn the cows on grass as we have plenty of hay stockpiled for the winter. We haven't even set a bale out yet and the cows are looking as good as we have seen them at this time in recent memory. Our hope is we can put a group of pairs together in the spring and someone will buy them as a group. If not selling them as pairs in the spring instead of bred females now we hopefully should be able to get a better price with a live calf at side. [/QUOTE]
