Too bloody tight
, have asked on more than one occasion and asked about it yesterday too.What you mean tight? Surely they would benefit from it.Too bloody tight
Yes, Bliss said it cost them too much, did point out it's us that pay, Kivells make it work very well and Frome seem to do OK with it as well.
It never made sense to me , they always get bids on there on disperses, so you would think it would help there trade
Yes kivells seem to make it work well
Think I would too, we're mostly purchasing cows from Kivells now after 4 generations of Greenslades.
And all on marteye? Brought some on there but nothing like seeing them in the flesh. I did think gth had a good show on Thursday tbf, we would be kivells 99% of time has handy to us
Have purchased on marteye, but did know herd they came from, worked out size of cows if Robert is in the ring. Going to sale on 31st if not doing silage, not many grazing type cows got to sedgemoor now.
They got sale this week to haven't they ? Friday?
I don't know why that made me chuckle so much but it did!

some of ours, are rather bony, £3.10p/kg, can't believe it, cheque agrees though.
these are cows still milking, that won't, or shouldn't, calve again. The milk is being replaced, not sure the extra value, drying off, and fattening, would equal the milk value. Not something we have done before, but, bit more milk, young cow, i/c for block, for the difference in price, of a barrener plus a bit, never seen it so close. But we will end up with a better younger herd.

you don't compare robert, side view, to measure a cows width ? do you ?
this should be a reply to @sidjohn, but between pobert and the rostrum, can judge fairly well !!
No I don't really but you could I guess

bought for years from GHT, but not for several years now, kivells look after us, the others couldn't care less. And the catalogue, is great, better than on the screen, when the cow enters the ring, gives you chance to get age, and breeding, instead of guessing
I would agree I think kivells catalogue or the easiest to read
We're selling most of our store cattle now at Cutcombe,now to, just calves go to Sedgemoor

Once a day herd for sale at sedgemoor soon.
5777kgs yield. Is that the same as litres or is there a conversion? I just work on milk sold so have no idea on these milk recording terms
