"started" calves

[buckaroo_bif]

i would assume a started calf would be one that has been weaned and started on.. feed. i would think it would be weaned, and past stocker stage. at those prices it would have to be a bit of a large calf, for holsteins, you know. definitely after weaning.

on second thought i know nothing about dairy cattle or how much a good a dairy heifer at a dairy sale (didnt there was such! lol) might bring. so what do i know, i just work here.

another brilliant deduction from the jerk from georgia

Thanks again for the advice, folks. I did it - I went ahead and brought home a trailerload of calves today. All on the bottle. :shock: :lol:
