i don't know what prices are in the US,but i sold my yearlings to a fella that exports them live to the states,i got $1.85 cnd on the hoof FOB farm for my yrls last june(prices are higher today,i got offered over 2 buck a lb for my calves last week)
The bison packers here in Can offer up to $3.30 on the rail for butcher hfrs and bulls.
I ain't kidding you.

I never said i make or made millions,not by a country mile,but it beats beef by a longshot.

Yes fencing and handling system costs are higher,my total cost for fencing(12 mls pagewire all new)+ a new squeeze was 55 grand,i did the work myself.I needed new fencing anyway cause the cattle fence was shot.Upkeep i found over the yrs has been minimal,a post here and there and a tangle to straiten out,same as cattle.

yea,bison dig a wallow here and there,so what,no big deal.

I'm just as real a bison rancher as you,its all i do.I got 200hd at the moment,sold 200 last yr cause of drought.
