[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 352882, member: 852"] 800lber @ .70/lb is $560, 1600lber at .50/lb is $800, true, but it's going to cost a lot more than $240 to get that calf up to 1600lbs. On just hay and grass from 400lbs on up, that'd be a 2-3 y/o animal. I personally prefer to sell my steers around 400lbs if it's springtime and folks want to put them on grass, or closer to 800lbs at other times of the year. I try not to hang onto them any longer than I have to since they just aren't worth that much. [/QUOTE]
