    Anyone see cow/calf pairs recently? What could you expect for a handy HE cow about 6 yr old with strong LM bull at foot and bulled to another LM for Spring 2021?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,718 ✭✭✭Anto_Meath


    You could be looking anywhere from €1,000 to €1,500 for the cow & calf, really depends on what they look like, I know thats not much help to you sorry.

    Was told trade in delvin was bad yesterday


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 602 ✭✭✭TooOldBoots


    Factories still happy to have there meat from fat cull cows. These are the best seller at the moment. Anything that needs grass/further feeding is well back.
    Maybe a few quid to be made on buying stores now if you have the grass

    Ya a cousin sold store cattle in gortatlea today he was disappointed. Saw some lovely store heifers at the start of it worth the money.
    Suppose the drought would eventually take the steam out the trade.

    That the reality.....there is feck all growth....was bound to hit prices.

    That the reality.....there is feck all growth....was bound to hit prices.

    Growth will return after the rain. Main thing effecting prices nor is the 7 month ANC mannis gone out if the market. Since June 1st he cannot fulfill ANC conditions by buying cattle. You are back to farmers that need a margin on cattle there was some stupid prices over the last while it never always continues. I know the man selling needs every penny of the price but the lad finishing can only deal with what is in front of him.

    You need a good bullock to hit 1200 euro now and a great one to hit 1400 euro

    Once you go away from bright coloured CH and the very tops of LM then everything else is discounted to varying degrees. Having said that certain stock types seem to go through different phases of popularity, 10 year's ago Belgium Blue's were all the rage locally but you'd seldom see a pen of blue weanlings anymore. I saw a few Lincoln red bullocks in the mart last night, they seem comparable to an AA.

    A local high profile auctioneer and others have been campaigning for year's to get the seller's name removed from the display board ringside. It's rumored that they've hit luck as seemingly it could be breaching personal data privacy to display such information around the ring. There's definitely less dealt cattle about presently compared to other years.

    Why would it bother the Auctioneer ?

    I suppose you'd have to ask him that question, the short answer is I don't know tbh. It's not going to make much difference to most lad's although it would definitely be a help to the dealers. Of course the thought of anything to benefit the tanglers will stop some lad's from getting a good night's sleep but thankfully I only have time to worry about my own affairs. I suppose if I had the option of not having my name and particulars scrolling across for all to see I'd be happier but then I'm a fairly private individual. It's not the end of the world either way and as with everything there's ways around the current system anyway.

    Don't understand the fall of the blue at all. I sold 7 blue bulls today

    394kg @ €1310
    420kg @ €1300
    382kg @ €1210
    344kg @ €1040
    362kg @ €1060
    392kg @ €1200
    398kg @ €1190
    All after my own stock bull, all calves naturally and the vast majority unassisted.

    I also sold 2 limousin bulls
    402kg @ €970
    388kg @ €940

    The Belgian blue is not or should not be dead anyhow.

    It varies from mart to mart depending on the format of the board that's displayed. I couldn't see the days in herd on the board in manorhamilton today either which is a change it just showed the number of owner's.

    I'm not knocking blue's as a breed although I've little personal experience of them. It's hard to argue with the above results and there a credit too you. The LM made good prices but they definitely pale in significance when compared to the blue's. The only thing I'd argue is that it's easier to sell an average CH or LM compared to an average BB.

    Carrigallen show the sellers name but Carnaross don't although all the other details are shown including the number of days in the sellers herd.

    Hi grueller, what were the dams? Did you say that you were moving into dairy, don't keep a close eye on the forum anymore so not sure, apologies if I'm off.
    Do you sell all as weanlings?

    I heard someone raised the issue of names & addresses been broadcast on the internet under GDPR and some marts have now stopped showing them as a result. But the way some mat boards are set up it cant be removed for some of the apps.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 354 ✭✭locha


    The dealers were very unhappy with names and days been shown on board. There were getting a lot of misses with their cattle through the rings.. I think at a minimum days in herd should be shown.

    Ya patsy. At least five of them were bought by a local buyer that used buy for Garavalli. Don't know who he is operating for now.

    Hi Jfh. The dams would be 3 blonde d'acquitaine with 2 of those blondes bred from blue x fr cows. The other blonde was off of a limo x fr cow.
    3 limousin (3/4 bred) and one parthenaise.

    All calves were born last August and September so selling weanlings.

    Yes I am started dairying. I will keep sucklers still though on the fragmented blocks of land that I have and milk on the home block.
