Looking for cows

[RJ1]

Morning

Latest tb test has taken another 10 with 4 more awaiting bloods results. I'm hoping numbers will be going the right way next time. I expect after we scan next week we'll be looking for 20 cows or so (not heifers).

Does anyone know of any grazing type cows for sale? Seen some ones which would fit the bill in Ireland but I'm loathe to be subject to the unfair deduction on cull value, so checking what's about!

Ideally looking for cows still in milk and calving no later than mid March next year. We find Irish friesian x does well for us so looking for friesiany type spring calvers.

Thanks

Ah bit of a track to Cornwall
I seem to have a few too many at the moment.
I breed mainly Friesian type not pedigree but fairly pure.

Not yet, just scanned on Friday. We'll need 20 (poss mix of cows/heifers) to make up for tb losses.
