Subject: RE: Bred Heifer prices



NW Iowa
I sorted 8 head off that were high headed with some sore feet.
They work them on concrete out there and those high headed ones work the rest up.
The sale barn stood by them and made me whole.
I sort pretty hard on feet and disposition.
Calves off 3 ranches, sold one group of 1 iron to a friend of mine.
Took a week to make sure they were hot wire broke
Don't back out of the bunk when i walk in front of them shaking a sack.
I can walk right in the pen and they mingle around me.
Turned them out with the cows after 2 week quarantine.
Eating ear corn out of my hand.
My other cows are 12 yrs old and my bull turns 15 and still gets it done.
I'll be calving 70 head so i'm pretty small.
I usually do pot loads every 8 to 12 yrs.
Otherwise closed herd. Can buy them cheaper than raise them.
My program for almost 30 yrs, i like high alt western stock.
They are used to eating sticks and no pulmonary problems
