    Not in it but have looked into it a few times over the years, I think there are 2 groups ABP and Dawn, ABP you need to be slaughtering a min of 50 angus cattle a year, so that rules me out. Last time I contacted Dawn about it they only wanted steers and heifers, no bulls. This may have changed recently, anybody know?

    You also need to be bord bia registered,
    There is an annual reg fee,
    5e(not 100% sure on this though) per animal slaughtered.

    I think Reilig used to be in it and stopped. If you look at the angus pedigree web sites they have links. This year there are a few specialist weanling sales starting for it. Ballina and Ballinasloe are doing them, + more around the country.
    Hope this helps.

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