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

Those reds really stand out in all the black hided calves.. And the steers look really nice,with the market being up its probably smart decision to let the feeders grow them out and take the $$ now.

With the sale of those steers, is that the ranches pay for the year or are you able sell more later.

@Jaidyn-ep6vz

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.

It’s definitely our main source of income each year but we also sell our cull cows and we cull through our heifers in the summer and sell them!

Just about a year ago! We’ll be branding and castrating real soon so those videos will be coming!

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.

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

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.

Why AI your heifers, then use a bull on the cows. Could it be the size and weight the bull produces? 😊🙏🏼
