We buying dairy stock from them so potentially a totally different department.

They are Irish so they are like a Welsh man but tighter so if they can save a few quid they will.

Inspect the cattle before they take a step off the lorry because once they're on theyre going no where. I think they now want a cheque on delivery - pay when you have gone through all the cattle and are happy with them all.

We have gone back to buy more so they can't be that bad but there are also a lot of other choice @bullbeef could well do you a deal instead.

What do they want though when i started they wanted 180kg dead the big sell was fast turn over using cheap calves now they want 220 dead using there calves which are way to dear and your probably doing 25% less because they want them bigger! There easy to deal with because there making all the money.

When I did it I sourced my own calves, and paid 245 If they are fed right they will do well! When the clean cattle dropped a bomb they stayed at a good
Price about 320? Which was good compared to the clean because you didn't have as much money tied
Up in the job, but I kept them a
Long while , sold some on butalair and some for bulls to dunbia because I wasn't tied into a contract ! They did leave profit but had them around a long while... And any processor buying off you wants to
Make money so they all have the same
Objective to rob you senseless !!! Also this year would be good I think die to the drop in cereals could be wrong like to listen to other peoples ideas ? Please don't hesitate to criticise my statements !
