Cheap enough, probably be worth £1200 straight off grass sept/oct. Smaller plainer cattle seem to be nose diving which is a concern and i dont think cows and calves are going to be the flyer they usually are unless they are quality. I still dont see why the trade on smaller cattle is falling unless grass is short, they will live on forage alone next winter so corn price shouldnt effect their trade now
If anything calf trade should be awful as they need hard feed now and next winter.Skintagain

Your a very good farmer if the only way you can get some lamb teeth is to ask the knackerman for them!Ask the knackerman for a few lamb teeth and superglue them in
thank me later
Hoggs an lambs dear in Hereford for less quality on offer! There were some cracking hoggs an lambs there aswell but in general the lambs were smaller on the week an just as dear, if not dearer

I guessed £970 but didn’t want to say
You either bought them right or they are cheaper than up here or I should have gone to spec savers

Went to Kirby breeding cattle sale yesterday it was only a recognisance mission for me
Any decent heifers and calves were £2500 plus some up around £3000
Incalf heifers although best sorts were making £2300/£2400 all day long some more some less
Nothing cheap that’s for sure
