About a year ago I bought 1 white face hereford bull calf for $300. I think he was about 4 or 5 months old. He was wormy (bad coat of hair, kinda sickly looking, and after he was treated for worms he looked 100% better). It was hard for me to tell how old he was as I haven't been around bovines since I was a teenager and then I didn't pay much attention.
Anyhow I called an old lady that raises herefords as a hobby. She said she had 2 bull calves and one due soon. The 2 calves she had she said when they are 3 to 4 months old she would sell them for...$700. each...I told her I wasn't interested.
What is the going price for beef calves. Isn't it like $.80 to $1.00 per pound? I'm in Maryland if that helps. Thanks for any info.
