We keep all our calves despite it being financially questionable and I don't agree with the live export of calves still on milk but.... the high moral ground outrage of the reporter and some of the contributors last night over minor things was ridiculous in my opinion.

Seems to be creeping up, a bit near hear made 300 this spring they're travelling 4/5 miles one way for the privilege. At 300 I'd be reluctant, at 400 I'm out. Trouble is come November they all need the same.

You are lucky they wait till November. Around here it's money up front.

Too much money involved to risk it until November. If they want it up front off me they can go and hoke, slowly realising that I'd be better off financially and have an easier time keeping what I can keep on my own ground.
Then again it ain't easy letting the neighbour have it🤣
