I am taking deposits for freezer beef.
The Black Angus, Angus cross steers will average 1300 lbs at slaughter time. Steers will get a finisher ration at a rate of 4% of body weight per day for 90 days. I use no hormones or steriods and steers are free grazing on good quality pastures. They are watered from my tap. The steers I have raised the past 5 years have average 60% hanging weight. Two weeks ago I took 5 to slaughter and I averaged 61.5% hanging weight.
Deposits are as follows:
whole $200
half $150
quarters are available, but you have to take the standard cut at the butcher because its impossible to custom cut/wrap a quarter as beef are cut in halves.
At the end of November, I will haul the steers to H and R Slaughtering for butchering. The steers will age for 2 weeks, during that time I will contact you and let you know how much the steer weighs, let you know your animal number, and when to pick up.During that time we will also settle up on the money and you will need to call H and R and tell them how you want the beef cut and packaged. If getting a quarter you have 2 options take the standard cut or get a buddy to take the other quarter and get a half cut and packaged the way you want it.
I will also haul a limited number of beef to Nashville free of charge.
Pricing for the fall is $1.40 per lb live weight. H and R charges .26 per lb live weight and a $24 kill fee.
I will also have beef for the Spring if interested.
I hope I didnt leave anything out, but if you have questions, feel free to pm me or call 4232155763. My name is Ben Collins

Is the pricing structure different for for Spring steers? When will they be available? Also, does H&R offer vacuum packing for the beef?
Thanks

Thanks TrailWatcher
I should have specified, the Spring beef is for 2014. The price structure will be the same. H and R does a great job and they do vacuum pack the beef.
