Brought 1 back home. We've had a super large heifer calf crop this year so planned on keeping heifers and 0 bulls to be in the way this go around. So I had 1 bull I liked I thought would make a good herd bull, well I stuck to my guns and decided I'd sell him as a feeder and he be out of the way leaving more room for heifers. Well he wasn't tagged but was sent to a pen I wasn't accustom to receiving with our calves. Checked the pen out and he was in a small pen with a black baldy not the typical large pen that our black calves go to. Heck no this isn't happening, I'm not taking a reduction on one of our best calves especially one I thought had bull material. So yeah I had them pull it out and load it back up. Not the first time it has happened. Had a Red one before get brought back home in a similar situation and were taken back to the sale a few weeks later to top the sale even over the black counterparts. Listed him on the report as a small - medium #1 which the pen brought 1.18 per pound. Should have been in the pen that sold for 1.4375.
