Subject: RE: How much shrink


Ryan, IA

load cattle from 2:00 to 4:00 pm every week. Weigh all cattle before loading. Haul 10 miles to sale barn and put in outside pens with no food or water. Sell at approximately 10:00 am the following morning and will have between 2.4% and 4.8% shrink depending on the cattle condition and the weather. Last years average shrink on 2375 head selling year around was 3.68%.In our finding reds always shrunk more than blacks and the front end cattle shrink more than cleanouts.
