    ZAG wouldn't be near a favorite bull of mine and yes I'd agree she'll stay handy, she has no width worth talking about but at the right price every animal deserves a chance.

    currently work is mental and the last 2 days I was to go to marts something else came up so it a case of throw the odd eye on DD,

    there were 3 nice LM heifers up in Clare last week on it for 680, thought they were ok at that money but were gone by the time I rang.

    Gort’s lmx heifer sale is on this Thursday evening. Depending where you are in limerick you could be there in 90 minutes. Might be an option for you.

    Will you bring them home if you're not happy with the price?

    Not sure. Depends how bad. Roughly 450kg apiece so once over €800 they will probably go. Such is the market atm

    At them weights & if they have a reasonable good shape you should have no trouble achieving above €800 euro. Heavier stock are not doing as bad as plain type young stock from what I seen last week at the mart. A lot of people are forgetting that cattle were the same price in the factory this time last year. Brexit has everyone concerned including myself but I am trying to remain positive & hope things will work out & we all remain in businesses.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,242 ✭✭✭✭Danzy


    They wouldn't make it in Kanturk unless lovely beasts. Gave 770 for a few Hex at 449.

    That said saw a neighbour sell five at 415 for ,780, great frame on them and you could see all the usual suspects at the Ring really getting in on it.

    Hope they went well Reggie.

    Heard a lot of people were disappointed with weanling prices at the weanling sale last Tuesday.

    Father had 2 lim x char bullocks in Ballinasloe today. 657kg, came into €1,485, €2.26 c/kg. 18 months. Happy with that... Dunno where the next guy is going to make a twist... hope he does though..

    God he had great weight on them for age. Theyll carry a lot more weight and come into big money off grass next summer.
