[QUOTE="Cattle Rack Rancher, post: 301150, member: 245"] Winnipeg Livestock Yards. That's kinda that whole problem with working full time is that I don't actually get to go to any auctions unless I can find something on a Saturday. I guess the other thing is what was i going to do with it anyway? I already have enough freezer meat for my family and I'm not in any way set up to do my own butchering. I still need to book 2 months ahead to get an animal in to the butcher. Anyway, my point is that conventional wisdom says you should ship open cows, but by looking at these numbers I wonder. I figure it would have cost me a little over $200 for feed and etc for the winter per each. Would I have made that back? What if there's a reason they didn't get bred.
