Color of feeder cattle and especially color patterns affect the price of feeder cattle. Generally feeder cattle that are uniform in color will sell for a higher price than those that are less uniform in color. Breeding decisions made by cow-calf producers impact the color of the calf crop. Cow-calf producers should have some knowledge of what those breeding decisions will have on their calf crop.
