I have been selling beef on the rail for 15 years. I have the same customers year after year with a few who come and go. I buy calves in the fall at 550-600 pounds and feed them through the winter and turn out on grass when it is ready. These calves have no growth hormones implants nor do they have any antibotics. I butcher the first and second week of October. I had 12 last year and processed 7 and the other 5 went to the sale barn. I got $2.10 per pound on the rail with the customer paying for all the rest. After this year I an not doing any half of a half. Sold the 5 at the local sale barn and got $1.00 per pound live, and they averaged 1225 pounds. I like the idea of the sale barn but private sales net me a few dollars more but not sure the head ache is worth it. I book my slaughter 1 year in advance. Bud
