No continental cattle need meal native breed's need grass

Read my post again. I didn't say contenital cattle Dont need concentrates. I said the need to be finished on the shortest time possible on concentrates. And when they are housed thats 70 -90 days. Killing contenital cattle at light weights is not profitable. Neither is it profitable to be feeding high levels of concentrates for more than 100 days in the case of heifers

Don't worry I wouldn't kill them at light weights

I agree with Robson. 14 birthday cattle are not plentiful . So a good sign.

A rocky road ahead for the 15 birthday cattle though..

Has anyone an idea whether the price of R grade cows will change between now and Xmas?

Our only hope of surviving 2017 is to get our manufacturing beef into America IMO.. Nothing being exported worth talking about at the minute. You would think convney would get a push on things before the spring.

I think they will import beef before they let it go to 4.40

Great weight for the Fiston heifer, was he disappointed with her price?

No because he didnt think she near that she wasnt over tall but she was very broad with a good deep body and shes from a blackwhite head cow. He didnt give her much nuts he gave it to the cow instead he says that she'll give it to him. Its his first year suckling after quitting the milking and he didn't have to winter her so hes only out the bard minimum with her in fairness. personal I'd have liked to have her creeped and push see what she could do

Just dropped a couple of cattle to the Mart. There's some totally mental cattle . Probably just weaned. Dangerous place

Seem to be more lazy lads around whose idea of weaning is loading into a trailer.

No premium for weaning at any sale I have seen. In fact I'd say the man selling would be out of pocket for doing it so why would you bother?

Instant weaning doesn't make them wild, it's how the were treated, that does it.
No point farming across a hedge & wonder why stock are mad when people are about

Great prices LC, how do you find the wh cows, the bil has used a wh bull this year to clean up after AI so I will have my pick next year, have only one wh here and she throughs a great calf to the limo and is easily kept with loads of milk.
