[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1714789, member: 498"] This week B sold 260 calves. The smallest steers about 6 in the group weighed 405 brought $2.02 which is $818 a head. The next to the largest one which had 10 or so in that bunch weighed 750 and brought $1.475 a pound which is $1,106. I don't remember the sale price or weight on the biggest calves but they brought well over $1,100 a head. Bulls turned out the same day. Cows gathered and calves weaned on the same day. Not a dime extra cost in those bigger calves but $288 more dollars in the pocket. [/QUOTE]
