    Two questions:
    What sort of money could i expect to pay for 250kg whitehead heifers in October?
    When would i have them finished if i gave them a good wintering?

    Unless there is a major financial meltdown, I guess somewhere between 500 and 600, depending on quality. But then again I could be talkin sh1te:confused::confused: What market do you want to finish them for, butcher or factory?

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    Butcher, something around the 280kg mark deadweight.
    I'll be meadowing half as much next year so i need something to graze over and above my normal numbers.
