custom feeding prices for cows

[dfarms11]

What is the going rate for custom feeding this year? How much has it gone up, or has it? I am thinking of doing it but need to figure out if I would be better off just selling the feed.

One outfit feeding a lot locally are charging $2.40 a day which sounds high until you figure in feed plus a realistic yardage fee. They turned away a lot of cows once they got filled up too. Unless you are prepared to charge enough I would sell your feed first.

Sell feed for a good price and head to Mexico.......bring in a bunch of cows and have work to do......uhmmmmm, ;-)
Neigbors sent cows out for $1:50/day, I can see why. No idea of ration or terms.
