[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1774825, member: 40587"] Scott told me he had talked to the man who bought them the other day. He started weaning at 7 mos...a little older than we did. He started end of September taking 16 to the sale most every week. 8 of the biggest steers and 8 of the biggest heifers each time. They weighed from 500+ to 6oo ;bs. The steers averaged bringing about $1.98 ...52 steers ended up bringing nearly $57k...about $1080 aeverage per steer. The 43 heifers ended up brining a total of $41,200, averaging about $960 each. So, he got a hair over $98k for the 95 calves. We sold the herd to him for $98k. 83 Corriente cows and my 12 Piney Woods/Fla Scrubs. Our Corrs were all bred with Ultrablacks and the other 12 were bred to Angus when I got them. Our Corr herd calved in February and the other 12 mid to late March So he got his money back already. Probably not all of it, I am sure he had sale barn fees to pay. and he put them on fertilized bermuda pastures, with some protein licks in it. So, he wasn't exactly input free like we were. But still, he has virtually nothing in the cows now, and next year that $98k for calves will be virtually all profit. He put Brangus bulls on them 1st of May. He already sked Scott if we would find him about 50-60 more. [/QUOTE]
