Was anyone at Carlisle today? @Raider112 ,@aangus
Don't know about the stores. Bulls looked a good trade for the best but the rest would be less than last week I would say. Weaners seemed to start off cheaper but picked up. There was a lot of 2 to 3 month old calves near the end which I didn't see, I was a bit worried about the trade for them as they would be a bit small for that ring and the calf buyers might have left by then.

I was hoping trade for younger ordinary bulls would pick up a bit.Feed cost must be putting buyers off. I saw those calves on the way out when i left.Lot of Hereford X. As you say,too small for that ring,and probably made alot less than in the calf ring.I dont know why they have put the Bulls and weaners in Ring 4.Its too small for the job.One little Blue heifer took a header into the outgoing gate and took it off the hinges.
