I've checked around, apparantly there aren;t going to be any special stock cow sales till July or August. Lack of producer demand was given as the reason.denvermartinfarms":wbsf2ksv said:If you do sell some at the special sale let me know, I will come up and try to get you a few more dollars.dun":wbsf2ksv said:I've been thinking of putting about half of the few we have left in a special stock cow sale.

It's high because no one is buying it, at least according to the NC wizardchippie":4lu2y6c7 said:I sold my daughter's not yet a yearling bull. He weighed 750 (no supplemental feed) and brought $1.51 lb. She was very happy.
The price of beef has really jumped at the grocery store too.
I mentioend it to the tae vet this morning. It used to be that the prices at Lebanon were always way low. He said that from the barns that he has to visit, there's about a half dozen or so, that the prices here run about the same as everywhere else. New owner a couple of years ago so he has gotten a better clientele then they used to halve. Nice guy too.skyhightree1":2uz2as8l said:Good Deal dun.
