Subject: feeder cattle put option


trying to understand buying put options

I'm considering buying a put option to protect the price on my January born black angus eastern oregon calves that i usually sell in September or October.

on my Etrade account, today it says Nov-21-24 270.00 put costs $6700

with approximately 91 550# calves covered by one option, that is $73 head?

seems expensive? if i look on a different day when the futures board is up more will the put be cheaper?
