I pay $1.50 /hd/ day when on milk. I supply all feed stuffs and meds and stand death loss. They supply huts, bedding, misc. supplies, and labor. I am on the high end of the pay rate locally, and have high expectations of the calves coming out of the huts. Have found too often that you get what you pay for when you try to cut corners.
