[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 238637, member: 852"] I like that one too, Dave. :) I understand what you're saying, tape - I think it's been explained that way to me before. If you have to slaughter an entire pen of calves on feed at once, at you reach the point where 95% are finished and 5% are under finished, it makes more $en$e to slaughter then, than to wait until the 5% are finished -- because the 95% would be overfinished and that would have cost you more than taking less money for the 5% before. Sure you can't always make money on every single cow - but if you set your goal to make money off every one, you're a lot less likely to keep cows that are costing you unneccessarily. I'm getting better at it. :P [/QUOTE]
