[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 4700882, member: 2119"] I have a pair of British White X Shorthorn bulls, 10 months and 11 months old. They each weigh 500 kg and look reasonably well fleshed. One looks fat, with a very wide back on him. They are from small cows and look like they won't grow a big frame. I feel like it's time to get them away now but just wondered what other people do. I am running low on straw so it would help to reduce numbers. What's the general spec for buyers of bull beet at a market? I think they like them a bit heavier but I am worried that these will just put on fat. The 10 month old one would probably stand a bit more but I like two in the trailer to save transport costs and it does weigh 500. Not done this before. Asking round here I get a different opinion depending on who I speak to, but the market people think they will do OK. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
