[QUOTE="dun, post: 21373, member: 34"] One of the post in this string made valid points on buying cows at the sale barn. Do your homework, spend time ibserving and checking out the animals. I concure that there are some real sorry cows going through the ring, but I would hazard a guess that there are just as many if not more that are decent cattle. Yes disease can be a problem, we've never had a problem with a shot of Nuflor when they arrive and isolate them. Stocker size calves we don't even do that, worm and turn out. Maybe it's shear dumb luck but we've not had a problem in moer years then I care to remember. We did get burned on one heifer. I let a petty face turn my head, plus we didn't realize she'ld been tranqed when she went through the ring. Funy part is that when we finally got her back to the sale barn, after paying the vet for 6 jolts of tranqualizer we still made money on her. dun [/QUOTE]
