    Just wondering what age/weight do people kill Angus heifers, killed a couple before Christmas 400-450kg year and a half, brought them home from the mart killed them the week after dud way better than mart price, just wondering if I should have held until June of this year, have 4 that I didn't kill so will know just considering future purchases

    When calves were affordable you'd keep them to 500kg at one and a half year old and have 260kg DW fo r a butcher which came in around a thousand or thousand and 50 euros
