For the commercial Cow/Calf operation.
For the first time in my life price's have gotten so high on replacement cattle here it pay's to retain a commercial heifer.
This is on paper. I have been scratching out the number's more than once. I still don't like heifers as I consider them a crap shoot versus a proven cow. I figure on paper to retain a heifer to production is 1400 to 1500 dollar's quality cow's are now bringing more than that.
This ties back into Tn Penquin's thread on the US cow herd .
