Plain summer (June/July) calvers are selling for almost the same price as In Season (Mar/April/May) calvers recently. Seems odd, unless they are going on feed? Are you seeing this?

Not a bad thing for those of us too lazy to work.

My problem is the people I would have to work with. People are the worst. Take a cantankerous bull over a union yes-man any day.

Not here. We have hay so we sell skinny steins and buy back fleshy bred beef cows. :cboy:
An enterprise question is - - are you better off buying bred beef cows or selling grass hay?

Dammm. I thought you might say that.
Breds were so cheap I bought a trailer of in season heifers at the last sale. :hide: Talked to Harlan afterwards. He did not think these new girls would still be producing when we hit the next beef price peak. Buy low sell low?

If he is suggesting that the next price peak is 8 years away, he won't have to worry about forecasting the beef industry trends anymore because there won't be one by then. The old guys will be out and the young guys will be bankrupt.
