[QUOTE="Limomike, post: 578230, member: 3400"] I think you will get alot of different answers on this question. But, I personally sell them according to the age and what the market is doing at the time. I used to sell them around 600 lbs; but the way things are now, I see yearlings going for as much as a 7 month old calf will. I think that is in part because the feedlots would rather not pay all the costs to feed out a calf for another 5-7 months. Most folks around here sell calves as they wean them; but a pre-conditioned calf will bring you more. [/QUOTE]
