[QUOTE="Bigfoot, post: 1280166, member: 17956"] I'm not saying calves should be kept until they are ready to hang on a rail. My point was calves should be weaned when they go to market. A 450 pound calf here would be worth about $1100. A 750 pound calf here, would be worth closer to $1400. I try not to wean many 450 pound calves. I like a terminal cross, that will come off of a cow at 700. there not hanging around here long to sell at 750-775. If somebodies weaning calves early for some external factor, thats a different story on the size your selling. Either way, it's a good idea to send a calf to the yard that's ready for the next step.
