Cattle prices are up here, too.
Neighbor sold several heifers this week for around $1.30/ pound at the local auction barn.
You might do better selling them if you just mention they are bred, and if you only mention the Dexter part if people ask. Not saying you should be dishonest at all, just that the mention of Dexter might throw off people who only know Angus and Brangus type cattle.
Around here, very few of the cattle going through the sale are registered. Lots of very nice Angus-type cattle, but not too many folks care about "registration".
