Price for a 2 month old Hereford Angus mix bull

[greybeard]

You would be surprised at the number sold in the 100's of thousands of dollars

And, it's 'complicated'. There's sometimes lots of breeder and breed assoc politics type stuff behind those 6 figure bull sales.
But, $650k for what might be the top bull of a breed is peanuts in relation to the fact that there were $88.25 billion in farm gate receipts -Cattle and Calves (USDA ERS 2014)
Cattle and beef production industry in the US is valued at around 175-200 billion USD, or 6% of the US economic value added output.
The industry didn't get that way using dink bulls.

5-6 months old and 300lbs is more than reasonable. For our farm I would be willing to pay $1,000-$1,200 for the pair.

Just so you all know I said I was going to pass on those Bulls. Price seems way out of line from what I was seeing at equity cooperative.
