[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1312731, member: 24816"] I can't really give an accurately consistent price premium, but I'm guessing maybe .10 cents. I have been buying heifer calves at a graded feeder calf sale for Hereford and Hereford influenced calves. Have sold a few steers there too. The larger groups seem to sell at a definite premium compared to the calves going through the regular sale. From a buyers perspective, I like getting calves from there, as I don't have to work them, and they are eating feed already, which is worth paying a little more for them. I would advise to talk to someone from the market that you sell at, they should be knowledgeable with more specific prices. Here there are several special graded feeder sales that co-mingle cattle from different farms based on frame and weight. [/QUOTE]
