    As Brian has, if they are out of the parlour. If you had anywhere to run them for a month or two, it's worth it. They clean up nicely.
    If you can't, there tends to be a bit of a hit.

    Well if anyone wants to fatten some for a factory lot, I've two solid enough FR heifers (one never calved, one a first calver never in parlour) and a big empty Rotbunt X dry seven months. I'd have thought they'd average 600kg.

    Would knock something off as the two heifers want skulling.

    Ah don't be too soft.
    There is nice money in fattening dry cows.

    You'd be as well of factory then yourself. Horns make no difference in the factory.
