Well I aim for as close to 430 kilos as I can, but mine are obviously older at 18-21 months, everything will have had 2 summers at grassI just treat them like buying big stores but smaller. Feed them for about six months as hard as you can then cash them. Only difference is they cost a fraction to buy and eat far less in the same period. They increased in value over purchase price on average by £490 in 194 days. I wouldn’t have thought continental bullocks average a lot better do they?

Hopefully a bit of a blip,Get some more rain and a bit of grass growth to steal a late cut and things maybe level out, I think the cull price and lamb job dropping back suddenly has dragged the prime down with it and everybody clearing culls out Re fodder crisisSold them Monday. Stores have dropped alot. Top price I got was £865 for a pen of 5. Well over £100 down on the month.
