We’re on the home run now with the Miscombe sale with trade for the yearling bulls forward topping at 3500gns on three occassions, the first of which was Miscombe Gamebird (lot 109), a Machermore Augustus son out of the Traffaut daughter Miscombe Blackbird. He sold with a beef value of +35. Next up at that money was Miscombe Gorge (lot 110), an Oxygene son out of the Samy daughter Miscombe Downlands, while Miscombe Gilette (lot 112), a Loosebeare Bomber son out of the Ronick Lion daughter Miscombe Toupette also went at that price.

So that’s the sale now over. Averages are through the roof…with a new breed record set for cows and calves – 15 in calf cows £4480; 31 cows and cavles £6130.64; 3 weaned bull calves £1995; 6 weaned heifer calves £2100; 5 heifers with cavles at foot £5649; 21 served heifers £4195.23; 18 maiden heifers £3150; 3 stock bulls £5355; 13 young bulls £2350.38. The whole sale has grossed £499,905 for 115 lots sold!!
