just buy a small number of same breed calves, do it properly, and see what they turn out like, nothing difficult, just regular routine.I thjnk you right regarding pyramind , just nice to have a umbrella so to speak when never done it before .
we have just sold 9 stirks 3-6 months old, all sold singly, as none 'matched' anything else we have about. Sold fairly well, dec born ch steer, £490 was the best. If it had been a matching pen of calves, av price would have been +£40/50 head.
that is why you should try and buy calves, that will make a decent pen, all matching, in mkt.
