[QUOTE="Silver, post: 1714079, member: 12520"] I do realize that there are places where no cow is going to wean a 750 lb calf no matter how good she is. By “dinks” I really mean calves much smaller than what CAN be raised locally. One can look at the local auction reports and see quite a spread on steer calf weights and see that some producers are selling dinks compared to other producers in the same market. I think Birddog said he averages 625 lbs on his steers, those aren’t dinks in any market. [/QUOTE]
