Anyone got a rough price for Angus X dairy heifers? 9-12 months, seen a bit of food and don't look too dairy bred. Plan was to keep them till March however its my first year rearing calves, got a bit carried away and now short of shed space.
£650-750 at a guess without weight, pics or rough location. Bad sorts reared badly could be £400's and good sorts grown on well could be £800's🤷
 
Blue greys seem too be making a resurgence this last couple of years. I’ve a piece of rough ground would be ideal with 12 cows plus a lim bull on. But I keep chickening out and just running lim heifers up there. One year I’ll manage it! 😂
Yes I’m in the same boat. Neighbour has some here they are usually out all winter and graze when the rest won’t. I’ve never been to the Kirkambeck sale or Newcastleton before. I realised on Saturday why I haven’t got any. I think they were up £680 or something daft last year at newcastleton on 2019. I’m a bit late thinking about it

I fear my carrier pigeon demanding fund liquidation before the blue grey sale at lockerbie on Tuesday ( Newcastleton) has either stopped for a rest , or been ate by a hawk .
I reckon he was parked up in our shed tonight ..(unless it's @spin cycle 's Parcelforce)

..I'll send him on his way in the morning - not too sure about the direction for the Cayman Islands though :scratchhead:

For the wee lads well-being, just send him back north . I shall venture to lockerbie on Tuesday armed with a cheery smile, my cap jauntily set, hope in my heart, and feck all in my wallet !!😂😂
