This is my first year to keep bulls, mostly dairy bred and one bunch of continentals from our own sucklers.
I think the have done very well. I sold some in the marts continentals about 530 kg , also dairy breds 500 kg
At the minute the are on good grass ,the have got no meal since the went out in spring. I was hoping to sell a few more off grass and then finish the rest.
Should i start feeding meal now or should i house them.
The are all spring 10 bulls mostly march.

Thanks for any advice/opinions

Hi OP,

few old threads on here

if you look there is more.

I presume they are black and white? If you have lots of grass leave them out, feed meal under the wire. If you are getting tight on grass or if weather gets bad house them. If they are behaving themselves or not is another factor too. Just my 2cents.

If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.
