They make some stunning animals as I am sure you know. Where I worked as a youngun and go back to self employed used to buy them in and fatten them. Some had pretty playful characters but at 600kgs it was a bit hairy at times. The farmer doesn't have them any more after one of them put him on his backside  :D Will you keep the calves on or do they go fairly early?

For me, the mower is out so we will be chopping again tomorrow  :)
