82 REARING CALVES
10.30 am – Auctioneer: Jon Pullin
Avg £173.00
Another good entry for time of year with the best calves remaining very
good money with the medium types a touch harder to trade mainly due to
quality and a few less farmer buyers present around the ring resultant of
the good harvesting weather.
Dairy Breeds (7): Short numbers so difficult to gauge any change in the
trade, but generally in line with recent weeks. R C Ponting & Son, top at
£100 and £80 with £82 for Chilton Farming, £72 for E & V Kidner, Avg
£61.43.

£225 for R J Prout, mediums £160 -£180, £120 and £130 for D J Hibbard
& Sons. Angus bulls traded well to reach £180, £190, £200 and a top of
£230 for E G Hedges & Son, Shepperdine, Thornbury with L Lewis also
selling at £200. Best fresh sorts £180+ avg for 14 forward good at
£177.43. Ken hedges also topping the heifers with a cracker at £150,
another good shaped calf from E & V Kidner made £140. Avg £117.60.
Weaned Angus heifers (9 months) made £270 and £240 from M/s A
Goodman.

A much larger entry as seen in nearly all centres this week has led to a drop in
trade especially after last week’s flier. Trade was better than many had expected
with little export demand and low trades reported nationally.
The best lambs traded between 185 – 195p/kg topping at 207/kg £85 for 41kg
from Miss I Voyce. The general run of lambs traded between 168 – 180p/kg
with only a few of the plainer or very loose coated lambs under these figures.
The heavier lambs traded generally between £76 - £83 topping at £87 for 51kg
from Mr E Wilcox.
