[QUOTE="donnaIL, post: 834500, member: 37"] Prices are good now--took 3 to the sale barn on Wed, and I didn't even get close to top dollar. These 3 animals been busting out for a few weeks, a 20 month steer, pregnant cow and her 8 month calf. They don't like my chocolate white face animals--so I got less than I expected. But I got: $95.50 cwt for 1240 steer = 1184.20 (Choc WF) $115.00 cwt for 655 8mo bull = 753.25 (docked because a bull and not vacinated) 3yo RWF Cow 3rd Stage = 800.00 Total 2737.45...I was hoping for 3K..but now no one is loose :) I do wonder why lots of times when I sell at the barn, my animals do not make the market report. I sometimes think they want us to see the high prices and bring the animals in. Sometimes I know the reporter is not there the entire time or not at all. I was only able to be there to see the bull calf sell--others already sell, I did watch for an hour or so, and not all calves bring over $100 cwt. Anyway I was happy to see my problem leave. [/QUOTE]
