[QUOTE="BRYANT, post: 1430614, member: 10562"] #1 is not right some good cattle goes through a sale barn., especially a big sale like OKC Stockyards. I have bought and still own good sale barn cattle. You do need someone who knows something about cattle to help you buy out of a sale barn. To say no good cows are at a sale barn is a big statement that is not true. #2 Is good advice don't try and buy cattle with out some kind of a place to work them, can start small and add to it as needed. #3 great advice stay away from buying bred heifers if you don't know about cattle. I don't like to even keep replacement heifers, I do sometimes. I will never buy bred heifers out out of a sale barn even though they will always say ''they are bred to a low birth weight Angus bull''. That's the way I do it some people buy them and do fine, I know a man that bought 70 last year from different sales some even looked small to me he pulled 3 and only lost 1 and did great on them when he sold them in the fall.
