[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 1639483, member: 694"] You can deprecate the cost of the bought heifer and write off inputs. The inputs are higher on the retained heifer versus the cost of purchasing a heifer. You have two years in the heifer with no return to the operation as well as the dam. The dam cost 1100 bucks for two years at 1.50 a day and never returned a penny for two years. From weaning of the heifer until calving you have 800 in her at 1.50 a day so your retained heifer is costing right a 2k and nothing returned to the operation. Retaining is fine just don’t sugarcoat the cost. [/QUOTE]
