A finished bullock that was meant for the Christmas fatstock but will have to go sooner because he'll be too heavy.

How have you got on with Hamlet?

How have you got on with Hamlet?

Getting on pretty well. Not had to assist any at birth so that’s the main thing. That calf will probably be the heaviest muscled so far.

Running a little trial with a batch of dairy bred continental steers, tried feeding them hard from stirks to compare them to bulls. Ad-lib and silage up to 350kg then ad-lib and straw. Sent first eight yesterday

I’ll tell you after the last draw.....
Overall pleased with the performance the rest are not far behind, thirty in total. The blues are maintaining dlwg but the limousins had slowed right up down to about 1.3kg/day in the last month. The big one was actually a rig but had done 2.3 kg/day same period. Not overly impressed with the KO% though 54% av. they averaged 597kg at home before loading. I’ve had big long Holstein bulls do nearly that! I was always taught age weighs with bullocks, they were only 12 months old so maybe the old boys were right.
