The price does vary from farm to farm and year to year. I've only been buying them for 3 years, and I was only looking for Jerseys, which limited me to a couple of farms in the county. The first year, one charged $25 and had prize-winning genetics, the next year another had 'mutt' Jerseys and charged $10. The 'prize-winning genetic' Jersey bulls were some really nice looking animals, and grew up big and strong.

Lynn-
Does the price of these cull dairy calves vary from year to year? We got
our draft animals as bottle babies for nothing when farmers were taking them
out back and hitting them with a rock, since taking them to Dewart for
auction would cost far more than their sale price, if they would sell at
all. The next year, no one would sell us a calf at any reasonable
price--big, big bucks at auction. I was out of the loop, and never knew
what to expect.
