selling stock

grange mac

To all ye cattle price experts there, am selling stock in a month. Is a 650kg charlaois worth 1300 and a 550 polly worth 1000. They are not finished as only getting grass and hay but there big animals, not on farm so see them every 3days so finishin is not an option. They will be my guide prices any thoughts?

Month is a kong time away
wouldnt speculate on prices yet

if it dosnt we might no longer have to refer back to 74 for a bad year
