[QUOTE="cow pollinater, post: 1043295, member: 14661"] I'm nothing special but anything that has my brand on it will be weaned and vaccinated when it's sold. Condition wise you lose some but the shrink is not anywhere near as bad when they do sell and if you do it consistently then there is a premium as the buyer notices that calves with YOUR brand are ready to GO. Here the auctioneer will announce time weaned and vaccination protocol but even if they don't they buyer is still paying attention. Most calves go into a bulk program of some sort and I can promise you that the guy buying the calves cares about the health of the calves he's buying as his job depends on it. I'm kind of like cross7 in thinking that it hurts us all to wean at the salesyard. [/QUOTE]
