This lad heard of the 90s trend of bleaching your hair a bit late.....

Another so called LM Cross out of a FR cow

Reminds me of Kevin bacon in footloose....

Lovely bums.

Hopefully the price rise's over the next few weeks.

Hopefully get to keep these grazing till mid Nov and then off to the mart.

I will check, but off hand I wouldn't have a clue.

I will check, but off hand I wouldn't have a clue.

Ah don't worry about it, hard to tell from photos but just looks like a beast would finish out to a serious weight, an earlier sale might suit him but you probably only want to go to mart the once

Not really a bother, just have to look at the cards in the office, just not in cattle mode other than feeding them, at the moment, and ages don't matter here not QA so they can buy them or the lads from the North will.

I weighed and dosed some bbx heifers today. Around 24mths old. They are all around the 400kg mark.

What would be a good exit strategy for them? Thinking of selling in March as they would be around 450kg and summer grazing lads would be starting to pick up. Or would finishers be the market?

What are they being fed at the moment? I would be hoping BBX 24 months old would be closer to 600kg by now.

 

[redpower]

Silage and 1.5kg ration.

BBX . Are they off friesan cows bucket fed.

 

[redpower]

Got off a dealer. Likely Friesan, but some could be Holstein. All bucket reared.

I don't want to be harsh but 400kg at 2 years old is poor performance.
The would want to be 500kg to go on a finishing diet.

 

[Its-me-here]

What's they're shape like? Are the low and stocky?

Any pictures

 

[redpower]

At an out farm so no pics. Some look Holstein. Would be more leggy than stocky.
