Dairy Chitchat 4, an udder new thread.

I lost respect for him after that podcast, he was talking to ordinary hard working lads and he just avoided every question giving bull **** answers and pretending to be a fool. Pod cast went on for nearly 2 hours and not 1 sentence that I’d consider noteworthy from him. Same as the rest of them, talk for Ireland while saying nothing.

Also you weren't getting paid to sell surplus replacements.

bs……I sold my 6 worst (which were still ok and of if I had to milk them I would of )fr heifer calves for 650 a piece 2 weeks ago…I had over 20 calls and if I had 50 I’d of sold them at that price …..incalf heifers and cows will command high prices this backend ….dairy stock just ain’t there ….i give out a bit about Tegasc but I must compliment them for this ….they advised just enough fr replacements and load on the beef straws ….happy days

It's A different market now. They haven't been the easiest animal to offload over the years. I have 28 heifer calves left here. Don't know when will I sell the surplus ones.
