How does he go about looking after 90000 Hoggs?

You didn’t think he does it all himself did you?

 

[cattleman123]

I could possibly find someone I know with between 15 and 20 times that number probably more!

Wow that a lot of hogs...god mine are enough for me to deal with...ah I don't expect he has any lame ones

JE?

 

[beltextexel]

Are they standard pot bellied Simmentals or tight gutted

In between. Certainly wouldn’t describe them as pot bellied but their not like a blonde with no gut at all either.

90,000 hoggs?

I thought such a big player as yourself would know who that was!!
Life is full of surprises isn’t it?
Once you leave the farming forum and get past the farm gate it’s a big wide world out there!!
As someone once said!
Now who could that have been?

I didn’t think he did no. But logistically in the uk that must be a nightmare. Not impossible but still a nightmare.

Speaking to auctioneer other day said he knows of one boy still got 4500 hoggs majority will be over 50kg too

Also just read that McDonalds to reopen on the 6th drive thru an take away.any truth in this?

Whenever they will decide to open I hope they have enough meat in storage or they are going to need a shed load. People are getting serious withdrawal symptoms. Good time to buy shares maybe?

Hard to price them atm and without seeing them...could be £1.90-2.10

Know no one with 90,000 hoggs especially at this time of year, 9,000 would be understandable but 90,000

Must have a hell of a set up with state of the art bio security and disease control measures, if all those are bought as stores from around the country.

 

[Beef farmer]

Try a bit more than 35p

30p is the rate locally, so in already inflated it for ya. For 30p mind its dairy ground unfenced

I can’t find a great lot here for 30p
Unless it’s what we call fresh air and a good view

It’s 60p up here
