[QUOTE="Ojp6, post: 1278418, member: 23608"] We buy cattle in the mid-south and ship them to north year round. Ran some gerts through a Minnesota winter without a problem. Had some brangus type cows and a few beefmasters as well. As long as they aren't too slick and can grow some hair when it gets cold you shouldn't have a problem. As long as the calves are a quarter or less eared they shouldn't hit you too hard at the sale barn but a calf with more than that will take a big dock probably over 50 cents. Ultrablacks might be a better option since it would allow you to breed a little more of the ear out of them on the calves. We have always had a lot worse luck when we brought northern cows south in the summer than when we brought southern cows north in the winter. [/QUOTE]
