    2k each

    a wild guess , ive no real idea , surely the calf is worth 500 dropped and the heifer worth 1500 , 2k would be good value for the buyer , the late calving dates dont help however

    I cant really see any consistency in Springers prices at the moment. I bought a few that would have made more hanging up. reckon 09 heifers should be fair sized. if they are reasonable quality i reckon in or around 14-1500. real good should pull in a good bit more. First calvers this time of year wouldnt really worry me. gives them a bit of a chance to recover for autumn calving next year.

    Let me know how you get on. I have a fella coming tomorrow to look at 11 LM hefiers, in calf to VKG calving in August. Hefiers are between 2 and half and 3 years old - i was thinking of looking for 1600 - and bottom price i would sell at is 1500 for the lot
