old coppers advice, first shoot, 2nd bury, 3rd say nothing, deny everything, and hope someone didn't see you. but your sheep, on someone else's property, dog defending garden, perhaps, dog chasing in a field, you could say dog chased it into field, but agree, very grey area, could change if dog...

the cost of keeping that cow, right around till next calf, which she may, or may not have, needs to be set against any profit you make, on the rest. take the money, she is no longer a cost to the rest of them, barren price is excellent. nice to think about the cows, instead of £'s, but the...

the dry jerseys at Exeter sold pretty well, for no records. they might not have done, if there were the records with them !!! l think its the finance that's driving the trade, once someone has a large chunk of approved finance, some seem to want to spend it all at the next sale. logical...

we had a small jer x cow come back at £153.5, only 464kg £712 if sent to abattoir, we would have been knocked hard, for underweight, reckon it would have been about £500 direct. young casualty stock bull, £176.5 at Salisbury, 642kg, £1133, wouldn't have come to that, from abattoir, they...

we have an old mill pond, silted up a few 100 yrs ago, always been a bugger to drain. however, some in a scheduled monument field, some not, the not bit, l put into a pond yrs ago. so thought would do the other, it just holds wet. ring up EH, out they come, wonderful idea. Then :- pay for a...

when we sold, faults were a no go and surprised us, the 'empty' cows, were knocked hard, despite some giving a lot of milk. picking them out, it was a job to know quite what to send, surprised at how old some were, you don't tend to notice those that give no trouble, just plod on under the...

l should think you are pleased with your prices. £850, to £1900 and £1337 av looked good titivated up.

grass sample 21% protein 13 me 12.5% sugar nitrates 0 w/wolds after maize + £60acre from wessex water, for cover crop between maize had no slurry and only half application of urea, just to much grass, and to wet, for anything more. but its a very heavy cut, looked poor take all winter...

grass sample 21% protein 13 ME 12.5% sugar 000 nitrates w/wold cover crops after maize. £60 acre sub from wessex water. :) :) :) rather surprise with this result, had half rate urea, not that long ago, obviously leached out, but didn't expect it to analysis that well, and there's a...

got the orange bit right !!! wonders will never cease.

son went to Frome today, 540 stirks, hell of a trade as were decent calves, wanted 4 or 5 bb hfrs, to make a 'batch' up, dearest £180, the 4 av £150. getting hold of numbers, ex farm, isn't as easy as we were told, 2nd farm we hoped to take from, didn't use AA, like normal, frx from xbred...

agricentre were really big around here, then wynstay took them over, never see a rep, found them pricey, and probably lost a lot trade locally. bridgemans are about 200m from where our local agricentre was, and our local rep, gone to bridgemans, as has a lot of our business. harpers seem a bit...

we sold a lot of ours, kept back the odds and sods, couldn't say we were overcrowded, but they have jumped up 2 litres. whether they stay, or go, l honestly don't know. Think l/we were lucky to get some gone, but its not my decision to make, and l don't/can't milk them. And pretty well...

we call them bog wort, which is probably a very yokel name for them they also happen to be crucial to the continued presence, of 1 type of butterfly, l think its called orange fritterary, but my butterfly knowledge is very small. They only lay their eggs on that plant.

don't think its sheperds purse ollie

does it qualify as a wild flower mix, under SFI ? ;) ;) ;)

just another scamming cold call, hijacked a number from some poor bugger. reminding everybody, watch out.

Get them in mkt, to give kivells long enough to give them a full wash, cut and trim, you will be surprised how better they will look. Thursday perhaps, or 6.00 friday morning. they look good now, but even better after the beauty clinic. good luck.

sent a hfrd bull on, yesterday, broke his dick, when fighting with another bull, who lifted a gate off, to get to him. 635kg, £1150. so useful cheque if you can't sell him, shame to go down that route though,

how old were they at mkt ? Don't really associate young calves with cocci, till past weaning. not a lot more you can do really, milk and rehydrant, if they are drinking, just make sure they have enough liquid, esp if still loose.
