There sure is alot of good feeders out there then, if your death loss is only 1% or less. The last few years for me has been around 2.2-2.5%. I wish it was better, but when you keep a group of cattle for 300 days, The chances of dying goes up!!!! I can tell you hours of stories of the different ways cattle have died here and it was not my fault.
