Top price for cattle?

blue5000 · 2011-08-19 21:50:42

As title says, what is the highest (craziest price) you've heard for cattle this year? I'll start off with this one: 250 kg white charolais heifers (not purebred) made 1000e or 4e/kg this week in Thurles.

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

I saw one BB calf sell for €550 a few weeks back, in Ennis. Funny thing, I thought he was worth it considering what 'ordinary' calves were making. He was a right good one.
