So who's next on the shopping list? I also had Chad and Silver in my pot so we obviously think along a similar line!
Struggling, to be honest my Mogul’s so far are beasts and absolutely stand out but don’t think my cows need that however friesians which I want to use but going back and forward on who.

Does anybody know what happened to the formal herd? Always remember looking at the cows on here walks. It just sort of disappeared

Any reason not to choose Goonhilly James.? I’m genuinely interested how I can sell more.
i like the friesian frame, i'm not yet convinced theres enough bf and protien plus. certainly they are a good cross on holstien, but we sell on constituents, and we have to have the cow to produce this. the total kg +on some friesians is not alot, i am now trying to sort out what to use on the autumn block. i go through loads of sale catalogues, to see what breeds, crosses, bulls actually produce in the flesh ! so any info is grate fully received! the frame on your bulls looks good!

My September average was 4.68 butterfat and 3.82 protein. Not too bad?
