[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1620097, member: 9096"] I weaned them and held them for a month ONCE.. it didn't pay.. Calves gain better on momma, rather leave them with her for that month Calves lose weight after weaning for a bit and get going slowly again You're taking a gamble on the market, if the prices are satisfactory now, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush Adding in some money for extra special feed, vaccines, etc and the chance that any stress related illness happens to YOU.. nope I trailer wean them, they're in good health with some fat and have reserves for their trip, I get close to top dollar every time, I'll take that and say thank you.
