Depends on the breed/type, weight, body condition and heath status, as well as market prices for a calf in your area. Prices differ if a calf is beef versus dairy; you'll see dairy bull calves go for quite cheap compared with dairy heifers.

For beef steers, that's awfully cheap. An 8 month-old beef steer, assuming he's around 800 lbs. will go for over twice that--say around $1250, some markets pulling the price up to $1400 for a good beef steer. Similar deal with a beef heifer, 800 lb beef heifers going for around $1000 to over $1200. With dairy bull calves, though, that's an okay price, but more at the low end for dairy bull calves 700 lbs and up. Dairy heifers will go for a lot more than that.
