We had a heifer calve today, ended up losing her calf. I'm wondering though, how much of a market there is for late May born steer calves? It seems like they would be almost too small for a midwest fair, but too big for Ft. Worth, etc. She was a first calf heifer, but is calving a little over a month after everyone else. I know the reason she's calving late and it's not a fertility issue, but I'm wondering if I would be ahead hauling her to the sale barn as opposed to keeping her and having her calve late every year? Opinions would be greatly appreciated.
