[QUOTE="Bama, post: 159634, member: 1184"] Sale barns sell everthing from Canners to top of the line breeders off of someone's farm that is going out. The trick is to know which is which when they come through. One thing a novice can do is watch the guys on the front row. If they arn't bidding much somethings wrong. Buying from a barn is risky. You just have to pay a little more attention as they come in. Look them over in the short time you see them. Ears shouldn't be drooping, eyes clear, feet sound, body and muscle filled out, perky, appropriate bag, strait back, not limping, nice hair coat, correct stance, normal plumbing, not bloated, nice disposistion, no weird knots, and a host of other things I'm leaving out. Doing this in the short time that you see them is what makes or breaks your profit on them. The most money I make on cattle is directly related to purchase price. [/QUOTE]
