What do people usually name there 4H steer?
It is usually a sign of respect and treating the steer affectionately....Naming it shows you care for it, and it is also much, much easier to call a steer a name such as buddy instead of just a number such as 2459. (Most farms number their cattle, so when you receive a steer for a 4-H project, there is usually a number on the registration.)

How much does a steer weigh at birth?
A steer is not born as a steer because a steer is a castrated bull-calf. In other words, a bull calf is born then castrated (or "steered") a few days or months after birth, or right at weaning, depending on the producer. A bull-calf's birth weight depends on its breeding. He can be as small as 30 lbs (miniature cattle) or as large as over 100 lbs (larger breeds like Chianina, Simmental, or Charolais).

What is the price relationship between a bred heifer and a steer calf?
A steer calf will sell higher when it is a lighter weight than if it where a heavier weight. For example, a 500 lb steer will sell at $125/cwt and a 900 lb steer will sell at $96/cwt. In total, a 500 lb steer and a 900 lb steer will go for $625 and $864, respectively. (cwt = per hundred weight, or per 100 lbs) Bred heifers generally are more expensive than steer calves, as they can go from $700 to $1000 per head. I think the price relationship for steer calves and bred heifers are that when more calves are being sold at a higher price, its gets more expensive to buy bred heifers, but more bred heifers can be sold. When steer prices go down, then that means the prices for bred cows go down and that gives the opportunity for bred heifers to be bought at a low price, but not sold.
How much do highland cows sell for their meat?
Depends on the "cow" you are referring to, and the weight of that "cow." In a regular salebarn, Highlanders sell for far less than what an Angus steer would sell for. This is because of three factors: excess hair, wrong colour, and presence of horns. You would do best selling via direct sales if you are looking to sell Highland beef.
