    Makes for depressing reading, great report all the same.

    Considering the way the weather is and the grass situation as well as that thsi si amart in Kerry I think they are right good prices. All the cattle are making 2.2/kg and a lot are making 2.5/kg. Even with cheap grazing lads will be hard pushed to turn a margin on a lot of them

    Everyone will look after their own corner. Anyone selling suckler bred yearlings in the 700-900 bracket is at nothing.

    There will always be a couple no matter how good an operator. trying here to break 1k with weanlings consistently but its not easy. pneumonia and scour is what causes the low priced ones.

    Dont get pneumonia here but the coccidiosis and crypto really knock the calves back. Have 2 that didnt do as they could after the scour.

    I bet if you went into the calf ring you'd see Hex and AAX calves making over €300 freely. That Hex at 290kg would be no bad animal at that weight for a weanlen, same with them Angus
    Pure and utter madness

    Did you buy or sell? I'd rather be buying if they good square cattle!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,453 ✭✭✭Never wrestle with pigs


    How's good cull cows going?
    Might have 5 700kg good fit cows with another bit of feeding left in them. Good simmental types

    Bought. First lad is a little plain but the other 3 are nice square framed animals.
    Was on them at 1130 in the ring (against a euro millions winner)and lad wouldn't put them on the market. Spoke to him outside was looking for 1200. Shook hands on 1180 and he delivered them and the other lad as part of the deal.
    If he took his chance and put them on the market he would possibly have made his 1200 without having to deliver them.
    Happy with them

    any heavy cows i saw in the marts last couple of weeks were blowing a 100 to 150 from what they'd make in the factory ,

    that was in the mid west maybe other regions vary

    What do you mean cows were blowing 100/150 from what they would make in factory ,is that 100 less in the mart then the factory ???
    Not in mart with over a month but cows were mad at that stage i.e. 630kg fr cow needing a few weeks feeding making €900


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,453 ✭✭✭Never wrestle with pigs


    Only reason I'm asking is that I'm not bord bia, so would I be better to sell with a bit of feeding left in them or finish?

    Twas a yank like in "The Field" that bought her outside Maam Cross mart sure. Cash into the paw. He couldnt go bidding in the ring after the sh1te that happened with The Bull McCabe the last time a yank went buying something back around there.☺
