    Hi jabby, could you get a factory agent to look at him, they'd have a fair idea what he'd make now, or if he'd be worth feeding.

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

    Is he in test for Brucellosis?

    Bulls are making good money in the marts at the moment. If he isnt fit to kill and you dont want the hassle of feeding him, the mart could be an option.

    killed our stock bull recently.
    he got no feeding and graded R3 from memory. in fact he was on a diet.
    only made 1200e... should of given the mart a punt.
    he was a nasty bugger!!!

    What age is he?

    If he's under 30 months, you wont be cut that much. Agree price with factory first. I sold a teaser bull a while back and got €3.50/Kg for U2 grade. He was under 30 months.
