    Along, Over, or With their weight mean the same thing. By way of example, A heifer weighing 330Kgs and makes €800 equates to €470 with the weight! (800 - 330 = 470).

    Making their weight, is making €1 per kilo. Making x along with their weight or over their weight or whatever is how much their price is in excess of €1/kg.

    In other words I agree with Bizzum, but I just have a different way of saying it!
