I was looking for a Suffolk tup or two this time, couldn’t buy any they were that dear and shyte too. And that’s bearing in mind we are running between £400 and £850 for tups
What you paid £850 for. Bought all mine private this time and happy with what I have got as long as they work. Fancy a beltex cross next year but you don’t see many round here. Suffolk I have is on his fourth season and has thrown some good lambs.

Nothing wrong with them, problem is dare i suggest it that you should have sent them a lot sooner, total different ball game fattening native V cont x cattle.
