[QUOTE="som farmer, post: 7373312, member: 86168"] we got stung last year, on 2 small pure jersy cows, sent direct to abattoir. £69 and £72, below min carcass weight. Assumed killing out 33%, based on the lowest price, for a bag of bones, at local mkt, they would have been £175 each, and they wonder why they don't get many culls from us, anymore, either jx or fr. But that is the problem with the small x cows, but you can't have both small cows, and high barren/calf price. Dad used to say, abattoirs would screw you on 1 lot, pay very well for the next, if you had moaned, and about right for the next, but still end up a head ! [USER=81760]@Jdunn55[/USER] , is about right, a good solid fr, does work for both, and you have the option of hol, if you need more milk at some stage. [/QUOTE]
