[QUOTE="ksmit454, post: 1756548, member: 39792"] Our local livestock auction is hosting their feeder sale coming up on August 10th. I’m looking to buy 6 feeders for next year. I have always bought from local people, but haven’t found any feeders yet. The neighbor that raises cow calf pairs didn’t get around to banding any bull calves (he’s an older gentleman). Another man I used to buy steers from recently passed and his son sold the herd. Thought I might try getting them at the special feeder sale. Thoughts? I have never bought from the sale mainly because I don’t want to deal with bringing in diseases/sick cattle. I’ve always raised good quality angus. I figure if auction is not a good idea, ask around some more from the local people who raise cattle near me. [/QUOTE]
