BRIDGNORTH LIVESTOCK MARKET

WEEKLY REPORT – 26.01.21 102 PRIME CATTLE

Auctioneer – Mark Burgoyne 07831 192603

Icy back-roads kept some vendors away today but those that

braved the conditions were very well rewarded – a fantastic trade

throughout with well finished cattle in front of the buyers once

again. More clean and bulls could have easily sold today with

orders left partially filled.

A sprinkling of steers with quality more than quantity today, selling

to 259p/kg with heavy Continentals to £1,643 in the lump.

Not so many show stoppers forward in the heifer department saw

the cream selling to 280p/kg with a sharp trade on heavier bodies

to £1,614.

Bull trade lifted 10-15p/kg from last week’s cooler breeze but with

generally a lack of quality bulls forward. A very strong Holstein

influence, hence an average of 181p/kg. Heavy Continental bulls

sold to £1,539 in the lump with 232p/kg taking the headlines. Black

& white bulls saw very strong competition to 190p/kg.

2 overage Dexter cross steers sold to 100p/kg & 70p/kg for 390kg

and 284kg respectively.

64 CLEAN CATTLE

ONLY 10 STEERS FORWARD SOLD TO OV.AV. 225P/KG

Handyweight Limousin crosses from Evans (Curdale) topped here

at 259p/kg for 540kg, with other Limmies from the Jordin brothers

at 628kg to 256p/kg (£1,607). Mr B’s slick Blonde sold to 252p/kg

for 634kg (£1,597) with two Limmies from Simon Raybould to

£1,642 & £1,630.

MORE STEERS WERE REQUIRED

54 HEIFERS FORWARD SOLD TO OV. AV. 232P/KG

Evans (Curdale) were top dogs here also selling their run of ten to

280p/kg with others of note to 272p/kg, 270p/kg and 261p/kg.

538kg Limmies from Richard Parkes took second spot to 275p/kg

with others to 271p/kg and 261p/kg. Limmies from Mrs B sold to

260p/kg for 520kg with Charlie Sandells handyweights to 257p/kg.

A great result on heavy heifers saw lot one from Brian Williams

selling to £1,614, with the Dalton stable selling to £1,560 and

£1,552.

ONLY 38 BULLS FORWARD SOLD TO OV.AV 181P/KG

As previously stated, lots of dairy bred types but strong demand

nevertheless.

Cracking shapes from Mark Jones’ British Blues selling to 232p/kg,

225p/kg and 223p/kg. Handyweight Blues from Dave Dobbin sold

to 216p/kg for 430kg.

A good go on Friesian Holsteins saw Colin Evans selling to 185p/kg

on two occasions but with James Woolrich selling his black & whites

to 190p/kg at 650kg.

Entries Invited

1165 HOGGS

Auctioneer – Martin Clack 07977 067519

A very respectable entry of hoggs with some Monday markets

reporting very small entries, a combination of flooding and snow.

Despite reduced entries, trade similar to last week with customers

experiencing severe price resistance, it would appear that the price

of lamb may have for the short term maxed out.

An average of 268p/kg with clean, dry, belly clipped hoggs most

definitely the order of the day. Best hoggs sold to 301p/kg for

45½kg Texels from Nigel Kinsey and £137 per head. Butchers hoggs

were keenly sought after with most 290p/kg to £3/kg. Lighter

hoggs sold to 290p/kg for 37½kg from Pete Morris. Once again,

43kg to 44kg hoggs realising the optimum higher prices per kilo are

grossing up to the most pounds per head. Hoggs over 50kg were

harder work with catering basically closed most sold around £110.

A good entry of hoggs required for next week, but please keep

them clean and dry.
