Average feeder heifers are $80/cwt here, average replacement heifers are $900 to $1000, and average cows are $800 to $950.
I thought about raising replacements since there is a big discount on hiefers here. It looked like it was about break even.
Is the point here that you really need a good rep and fancy cattle to be profitable with replacements?
Or is the point that there just isn't much profit in this cattle market?
