We tested the waters at the auction yesterday with 100 str calves (avg. 606lbs after 3% shrink and 120 miles trucking), got a whopping $.90 /lb for them.
Dry cows averaged about 1350 lbs, averaged $.29 /lb
Dry heifers averaged 900lbs, $.80 /lb
Dry heiferettes avg. 1000lbs, $.46 /lb
Cull bulls $.2325 - $.265 /lb
All in all, pretty dismal especially considering we topped the sale with drys and bulls. For some reason we were a nickle off with the str calves. But thats life in the fast lane I suppose.
