[QUOTE="Man_in_black, post: 2377894, member: 22706"] Now then Can someone give me a quick idea on the process of Cull trade. Basically at the minute I have more grass than sheep to eat it (sorry!) So am thinking of buying in some culls, get bit of fat on them and sell. Of course I want to make a bit but mainly so grass doesn't get away from me. So.....culls at market, avg £70 head, are these for finished culls? Is there a diffeence/separate sale of finished culls to those who need some extra, or just a case of hands on bcs and deciding yourself? Once finished is it best to take them back to mart or sell dead? Or has anyone got any better ideas of what to do with grass before I get more replacement in September? Any suggestions & advice appreciated. Edit to add that I'd dedicate one field just for the culls/stores but if did eventually want to put my flock on that grazing again, how long after taking culls out could I guarantee grass was clean? Top it first? [/QUOTE]
