[Fellstoflats]

Couldn't tell you what we're paying, but for service, can't beat KFS in the South East.

Great bloke, good communication, and turns out whenever we need him- even came and picked up a dead cow yesterday afternoon.

 

[kfpben]

Hunt kennels down the road.
£5 for a calf, £12.50 a ewe.
£10 a bag of lambs.
Horse £125. Receive a discount for allowing hounds across the farm.

I get bins from Harry Hawkins in for lambing though. Will report the price back when they turn up!

 

[Wesley]

East Devon. Had a price increase in the new year, but do get a 10% discount. £20 minimum charge for collection.

 

[Vorest Tat]

£30 plus vat to collect a ewe here

Talk about throwing good money after bad.......paying someone to remove good organic fertiliser.......

 

[buckracker2009]

21 +vat for a ewe I think we pay Cornwall

 

[Hfd Cattle]

.....tooo much ! ......tooo regular!

 

[yellowbelly]

Crikey, didn't realise how lucky we are....
Just one of these...
....now and again for the huntsman. Must drop him another one off, fairly soon.

 

[Estate fencing.]

Nothing but they do meet here 5 times a year to hunt, so in reality a fortune in years like this in damage.

 

[Jonp]

£24/ewe....south east wales

 

[Wood field]

Northern fallen stock, they now have an app. Book it in and usually it’s gone by 8-30 next morning
Ewe over 12 months £16.95
Used to take them to a local knacker man , he charged £20 and that’s after you had took it to him

 

[Tomo23]

£20 + VAT for ewes here in Staffordshire.

 

[nonemouse]

Think prices have gone up but could get stuff collected from northern fallen stock, cheaper than if I dropped it off at hunt kennels and now I can tell them to pee off if they try riding their bloody horses across my corn fields

Agree, he does a very professional job and doesn't cut corners on disinfectant between farms, including his vehicles tailgate.


Can't believe how cheap some of you are getting a fallen stock service for. It's been £35 for sheep in this area for years and £160 plus for cattle.

Bins work out cheaper........especially in summer where anything chucked in disolves very quickly.

No reason not to have sealed tanks for sheep. They probably wouldn't need empting for years. So much better for the environment, rather than lugging dead corpes around the country.

Has anybody thought about keeping some pigs/crocodiles in the corner of the shed...

How dare you? British farming doesn't need this bad press, have you not got anything better to discuss?
