Yes we'll well spotted, they're definitely 2018 born.

I had to write a cheque for the first time in a very long time the other day and it was pointed out that I'd got the day, month and year all wrong.

To answer a few people's questions at once.

These are all dairy bred out of a jersey and jersey cross herd.

Although my cows don't have the biggest bottoms they are bred for strength to be out and out grazers. This make for beef animals that are great forage converters. They will comfortably make 300kg DW by 30m with no hard feed.

I was not planning on selling these so they haven't been pushed. They are still out on September deferred grazing with rough hay and a kilo of cake.

Not through here but they sold for the asking price.

I've still got 40 odd that 12 months older that haven't gone yet.
