As above. I’ve always believed in being responsible for your own replacements but..... I’m way overstocked on youngstock and this summer, although I’ve managed ok has hit home that I can’t continue adding ever more stock without additional land, and I’m not keen on trying too Farm twice the land area, especially when it’ll be away ground which is what’s required.
This winters going too put huge pressure on cash flow if I am buying in enough feed and bedding for all of them.
Delighted with the fleckvieh x and procross I selected from Holland and a trip out for 20 every February too calve April would be easy.
Big decision though. Half of me thinks sell some and keep some but economics and lack of land still a problem just a smaller problem.
