I hauled 7 polled hereford calves to the sale yard at Woodburn yesterday, I was a very good day. I was a little worried at first because I had to wait in line for about an hour until it was my turn to unload, so I figured there would be lots of cattle going through and it may effect prices. I had 2 bull calves and 5 heifers. The 5 wt bulls brought $150 cwt and the heifers averaged $134 cwt. I was a great feeling driving home with a $3600 check in my pocket for a few calves. The two bulls brought top dollar, no dock for RWF or nuts. I was nice to see them go for the same price as the good black calves went for, I saw nothing go higher than a $150cwt, but I didn't see the whole sale spent some time dancing in the parking lot! :banana: :banana:
But I can't help to wonder what going to happen to beef price in the super markets, time to grain up another steer.
