[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1661667, member: 498"] Last spring I bought one to grind. Based on the brand and the part of this world she came from she was a replacement heifer from a bigger ranch that must have slipped her calf. She weighed 1,100 something and cost around 53 cents. I do remember the price came to $635. I bought her on a Wednesday and the kill truck came on Friday. She had obviously been been fed well and wasn't too old. She hung up at 650 pounds which worked out to about 57%. We kept some of the best steaks and a few roasts off her. The rest went into hamburger. The thing I remember most is she cost $635 and the kill and process cost $632. The total cost was $1,267. There was about 300 pounds of burger. Had I sold the burger at $5 a pound I would have profited $233. [/QUOTE]
