[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 706542, member: 3162"] Those three heifers on the nurse cow are over 400 lbs now and butterball fat. The two brangus heifers (splits) are especially nice. No way they would have taken in that much milk on their normal momma. They'll get weaned and I am considering buying some of the nicer $45 holstein heifers for nurse cow prospects a few years from now. Dairy heifers have not been this cheap in a while. 6 years ago they were $850 at a day old with papers. Some of those coming thru the sale barn last time I was there were obvious free martins. I'll be looking close. Saw some go for $20 but some of the nicer dairy heifers were fetching $45. Maybe I can get a good look out in the pen before they hit the ring. [/QUOTE]
