just remember it takes a while to get one in condition for slaughter. unless you want one direct off of grass,then it is just catch and carry.
Posted 10 hours ago, prices I state are estimates, $85 kill charge, $.85 lb process depending on paper of vacum seal.
Less than 60 days on feed , I'd prefer 90 days..

Those are kinda small to be hauling to the processor.
We try to be between 1100 - 1250, but the way kill dates are now, I suspect if you've got a date, you haul what you've got to the kill floor.
just come get one off the pasture. take it home and slaughter it yourself or get some friends to help. want a 500 pound beef no problem. want it corn fed for 120 days that is ok too. get a coolbot and make a cooler to hang it in to make it even better. or i will haul them off to the market and the supply chain can deliver it. some of you folks want some to feed out for your own? or for resale?
My goal is to build my own cold room and further our independence on the outside world. Plans are once I scrape up the funds are to build an 8x12 coupled to the coolbot device and a 10k btu, building has to be R25 so some thick insulation.. @cowadle from my eyes and speculation beef is gonna go up. If it's feasible you might wanna let'em graze for what time you can.
thanks Timmy. beef may go up and it may go down as will any margin i have to operate on. the cost of feed byproducts are making life difficult for most commercial cowmen at this time. lucky i could see the writing on the wall many many years ago and broke away from the norm and changed many unsustainable practices that are sending many to the auction. but the packer is making about 700 dollars on every calf i sell into the market and they only own them for a fraction of time.
Ya @Cowcatcher brought that to our attention months back.. Shame it is..
Good processors are booking 12+ months out
