We dropped from 106 adults to 54
Listening to the market last fall, there was a report of the cows sold in/at several select auctions in a 3 month period. It was almost the same number as the previous 3 years combined of the same 3 months.
Replacement heifers will bring a pretty penny this year for anybody who could afford to keep them over the winter.
Good thing I sold a couple of horses last year.
