Great mother. Concerned but not aggressive. As always really enjoy your videos. Hope your calves bring top price. Your cattle price lots good our corn and bean price was much better at harvest. That is farming and ranching. Next year will be much better. God Bless. Our Savior Has Risen

So how many head of cattle went to the sale barn? Just curious but how many head of cattle do you have now? Including calves.
@sjeffreyw8 ай бұрын
With the sale of those steers, is that the ranches pay for the year or are you able sell more later.
@Jaidyn-ep6vz8 ай бұрын
Just depends. Some people keep the smaller to sell later. Some people will also sell the heifers later and some will keep them for brood cows.

I have always felt bad for cattlemen who have short-tailed and boob-eared cattle cut out at the sale barn. That said, when I buy steers to fatten for the butcher market, I look for those very ones to buy. As I say to people, I don't eat that part anyway.

Absolutely nothing but buyers will dock you on price pretty hard because of it. They just use it as an excuse to get a deal
@hoosier87298 ай бұрын
Depending what region of the country you're in . In the south you'll get lots of eared cattle ( Brahma ) influenced. A good part of a sale last week had many tiger striped cattle Bradford's, Brangus . As well as some stockyards dock you if you're cattle aren't all black . Had a mix of Balancer steers and Braunvieh/Herefords and took a small payout for the off color ones.
