[QUOTE="Australian, post: 1003555, member: 8793"] plenty of green grass about south of the border. Have a yard full of the first batch of weaners, a mix of commercials and studs. Thanks goodness the yards dried out before they went in there. Sold the bulk of our weaners straight off their mothers a week or so ago. Prices were dismal to say the least. They were back about $150 a head on last year. Thank god we kept back a few and kept more heifers. Our heifer calves were too dam good to let go for nothing. Here in this country there are no rewards for buying good bulls or putting effort into breeding good cattle, only peace of mind. The weather has become decidedly Autumn like with the trees turning browner each day and the temperatures subsiding a bit. As long as "jack' stays away for at least another 6 weeks will be ok. But April 25 usually brings on a white one. Off to the Fassifern Brahman Female sale tomorrow for a look. 50 very good quality grey and red heifers on offer from about 6 select studs. Last year they were back in price but who knows tomorrow. [/QUOTE]
