Just curious, what are you currently getting per 100 weight on the hoof? I assume you sell em to the feed lot? Cows or steers?My wife has a small crypto portfolio it's not much and may never make us anything but she is holding onto it. I'm like sonny1 all my investments are out in the field eating grass and multiplying. Livestock prices are way up so I'm feeling pretty good about it at the moment.
We sell our steers as processed beef to consumers right off the farm. We send them to a small local usda certified butcher for processing. $5lb hang weight. The heifers we sell off at 8 months( won't breed them back to my bull/ their father) Those We take to the livestock auction lately they bring in $120 per 100lb.Just curious, what are you currently getting per 100 weight on the hoof?

Thank you!! I sell wholesale beef and always like to hear an on-the-ground report from ranchers.We sell our steers as processed beef to consumers right off the farm.

A lot depends on the time of year and market value. Right now beef prices are good. Come around December might be better. I only run about twenty heads yearly. Two bulls who I lend out at times to the neighbors for a small fee. I actually make more money off of my chickens then I do the cows. All require a lot of work. Took a hit during the hail storm and lost about 50 birds. They were out in the upper field on the place and got caught in the storm. Flatheadsteve is very smart to have the arrangement of selling off the farm. I am working a deal with a private butcher who runs a small meat market. He is very strict on quality and has the meat tested for steroids and other by products. Basically he is looking for organic grown beef. If I can work out deal it could be very beneficial for him and myself.Thank you!! I sell wholesale beef and always like to hear an on-the-ground report from ranchers.
I was in your shoes not too long ago, feeling a bit lost but curious. A friend of mine suggested starting small, just to get a feel for things. I took their advice and started with a few dollars using https://stealthex.io to swap some coins. The platform was super user-friendly, which made the whole process easier.I found it helpful to read up on different projects and watch some beginner videos online. It’s all about learning at your own pace. I’ve had some ups and downs, but I think that’s part of the journey. Just stay curious and don’t rush into anything. You’ll pick it up as you go!
