OK, stupid question here:
What would be a fair price to charge some friends for the final product - wrapped and boxed? I also want to be fair to myself.
These will be black baldies and a horned angus cross to whatever the mother was. They have put on size like I cannot believe!! And, I will grain them on corn for about 90 days plus or minus.
Friends are asking how much loin, roasts, hamburger, etc. will be in the total? Any estimates if they slaughter at about 1000 pounds?
One final, how do you estimate the weights as a newbie without a scale? I would swear that these I have had put on about 4 to 5 pounds per day for about th efirst 6 weeks. Is that really possible on crappy but tall green salt grass?
Thanks for any and all replies! - Utah...
