[QUOTE="dieselbeef, post: 1405255, member: 4655"] now see I hadnt thought of it like that...I assume that they are unknowns coming from the markets in florida. I think that he is talkin to those of us who don't have a potload...or enough to retain ownership. what he is doing is preconditioning them for the feedlots and slaughter. I suppose lots could be ordered from him to meet the slaughterhouse requirements the biggest thing I got from him was that the barns offer nothing for backgrounding. everything he gets goes thru the same regiment... technically all my calfs are preconditioned...shots/wormed/vac/castrated/bunk broke/bout 8-9 mos. i offer exactly what he wants..but since I sell 3/4 at a time 5 times a yr nobody knows that ..so I don't top the sale..just run avg or slightly better mostly I might add he isn't the buyer..buyers send their stuff to him to get ready for that 30 hr trip to ok or ks in the dead of winter [/QUOTE]
