sold good

[Joy in Texas]

I went to the cattle sale barn in Nixon on Mon. I took some of those painted bull calves. I was kind of worried,because I already knew I was going to be docked for ears and color.
They weighed between 470-515. The boys did great. They held their own with the black and red hided calves.
They did start them 10 cheaper,but by the time it was all said and done. I made the same amount.
They had some of those red brahma heifers come thru. They were anywhere from 8-10 months old. Wow they were high 700-850 a head.

Brahman heifers are notoriously high.. even when other heifers are lower, you'll find they're $10 - $20 higher. Always in demand for those F1 producers.

Sounds like the calves did good! Always nice to get a good check!
