Iv currently giving group of 47 1/2 acre a day of fresh grass, we have the option to bring them in but,on most days seam very content. I'm just afraid they won't grow fast enough to sell as big stores at 24/26 months.

They look grand! and there is nowt cheaper than that system.As long as they can get shelter behind a hedge if they need it.

What daily liveweight can I expect to gain from Angus/ Herefords out on dairy grass all winter? View attachment 1001904

They look well.

Nice roof on yer shed

Are yer saving up to have some walls built for it ?

Bloody noisy! A500 over the top and the mainline from London - Crewe on the right hand side

As a finisher, don't leave them too late to sell. We need 90 days to get them FA, unless you are FA. If they are small at 24 months then they will still be small at 26, get them gone and give the finisher a chance to do their job.

They are FA, thinking keeping out till end of December approx 18 months old then in onto TMR and maize, then turn out mid may and sell June/July 24/26 months

I avoid show weeks for that reason. Drives me mad watching 2/3 lambs at a time going through!

Iv never done beef befor, I just don't have the time to take two or three at a time fat, so was hoping to sell to let someone else do the final running. The 47 DOB are over three months apart, we have a group of 72 coming on behind that are born within 6 week block.
