Boss sent some to pickstocks week before last on a Tuesday with couple of cull cows. Killed on Wednesday. After numerous email and texts, the kill sheets for Angus eventually come at tail end of last week and said to be killed with normal clean cattle and no bonus paid.
Rep said Angus only killed on Fridays. News to us, never been a problem before and he knew what was on the wagon.

Would all these breeds come under an R4l average though
What you had been told is very similar too what our local big beef finisher told me. “Never ring them with cattle, wait till they ring me begging for an artic or two. Then we start negotiating” he’s not a multi millionaire for nothing... he’ll think nothing too holding cattle back for a month then sending 100 in one hit when they bid right. Must be great too be in that position!

Good money changing hands for those big bf name, auldhouse, allunfauld, glenrath, nunnerie. But a lot at £150 as well. You need to be in that tup game for generations for those big prices. It's some atmosphere at those sale when a big money one comes to the ring, obviously not so much this year, but someone said lanark had one yesterday. Hopefully back to normal next year?.
Abp (southern counties) pay AA premium later I think,but they need to be under 360 kg

Abp Perth all paid within days .pay in full to 400kg . -5p for every 10kg up to 420.go over that an they are same price as clean.
Its sorted now, new girl in the office paid them on clean price with no premium.hope everyone else checked there kill sheet properly that week!
It would be a nice treat if the new girl paid all the clean on AA price,do you think they would get many calls

People must know something I don't about the lamb job..... Many in? Did you see any cull ewes sold?
Don’t let it worry you. I’m thinking the same...

Yes , cant work it out. thought this year would be a major wind down on the sheep towards now , maybe the cliff is coming , who knows .
I can understand it being up bit this year with the fat being better but I think it's getting a bit silly now plenty can go wrong

Local haulier has had his deckers and wagons and drags leading sheep in to kill full time for months now. Drivers all out of time so he’s been putting one a week through their test to double shift the wagons plus between four and six artic deckers hired in full time every week.
He’s convinced there will be no sheep left by end of December and we will name the price so he thinks

The 61st Doe Show - Starts 25th January 2021
The Doe Show has been a firm fixture in the agricultural, construction and groundcare industries calendars since 1960. Held during the first week of February every year, the Doe Show attracts huge crowds to our head office at Ulting, Essex and is by far the largest agricultural, construction and groundcare machinery dealer in the UK, possibly Europe.
Given the current pandemic and restrictions we find ourselves under, it would be irresponsible to hold our 2021 Doe Show in the physical sense. However, we are delighted to be able to bring the 61st Doe Show to our customers, albeit in a different way than we have over the past 60 years. Finding new ways of engaging with our customers excites us and we are...
