571 pounds on the steers and I contracted them at 575.
521 pounds on the heifers and I contracted them at 525.
Pretty accuarate guess since the contract was written months ago.
Interesting news from the vet but I can't say anything until the official announcement. Suffice to say I got my cattle out of here just under the wore.
With the remants of the cold and a terrible migrane since before lnuch I think I will go lay dwon and dei now.

That was a close estimate on the weight of the calves. I thought with all the good grass they might come in heavier. Seems like all that feed would make richer milk, etc. Funny, tho, how a cow can turn out a good calf in all sorts of circumstances. Glad you got them shipped.

We weaned/processed today. Been pouring rain for 2 days now, did we get wet! We contracted less than you, and that is due to our location. Trucking kills us.
