[QUOTE="stocky, post: 935423, member: 1150"] First of all, I am real sorry about you having to sell your cows. Dun is right on with the advice on feeding in our area. Salesbarn Junkie is also right on about the sale of your cattle. No doubt, he bought them and then took them right to the sales barn and sold them for the money you should have gotten for them. "Some rancher" doesn't answer the phone at a sales barn. It was someone who works there and he saw a way to make some money by coming out and buying your cattle. Might have even been the same guy who came out and told my neighbor that he would give him 900 per pair for his black cows and calves and save him the trouble and expense of hauling them to Springfield and waiting all day for the check. The cattle were worth over 1200 per pair when this happened, so it was an expensive lesson he learned. Especially when he paid 1500 per springer to buy back in the next spring. Good luck as you get ready to get back in and hope you are able to sort through all the info provided and see which helps and which doesn't. Hope you get rain [/QUOTE]
