[QUOTE="Hpacres440p, post: 1710632, member: 39347"] Went to a beef se Went to a beef seminar at A&M 2 years ago. Interesting presentation by an auction owner-he said calves sold in October tend to be lowest price because of weather stress on trailer weaned calves, buyers know they’ll have sickness losses down the road at the yards. It may not be profitable for everyone to do it, but as part of good stewardship, it matters to the animals produced that they can have lower stress transitions. [/QUOTE]
