CArol, I have been attending a LOT of local livestock auctions lately, as part of a learning process before I start making bids or selling some of my other stock--
Yes-- the really young animals fetch a much higher price than the weaned ones-- I could not beieve the difference in price between a 'still wet' animal and one that would entail less work to finish "growing out." I saw those recalls on the news last night-- and for certain-- I will mention this to the Farm group I belong to at Monday's meeting. What is really interesting-- a DOG AUCTION has been sold, and the buyer is moving to my area--I think I will check taht out for sales contacts...
