Three of the first calvers have calved, one more to go.
As for age of the cows, most were born in spring 2012 then calved as three year olds so having second calving now! Although 3 are now 3rd calvers
7 native bred cows/ heifers,
8 continental

How much for the lot?

How much for the lot?

I think £1250 each = £18,750 including calves they are the smartest looking suckler cows I've seen, but I would say that wouldn't I.

£1250 each including calves ONO
Yes I would keep until all calved if it helped, there is no super close ones tho! Although there might be by the time I've had them pre movement tested!

Hello Far Gloss
I am in Shropshire and will pay you a fair price for all that have calved
Take the rest as calved
PM me please for more details

 

[Damomc]

They went in to local mart last Saturday , One of the buyers is coming this week to look the rest of them . If he does not take them then they will go to the mart next weekend. Yours look very similar to ours( except our calved to pedigree Hereford bull ) . I would stick to your price and not give them away. As I said we averaged over £1300 each worst was £1000 best was just under £1500 .

Thanks again, yes I will stick to my price now, I just wasn't sure what price to ask, my calves are much younger than yours, oldest is one month now. Yours must have been really good young cows, as are mine
