Dexter Cattle For Sale Discussion Board

We crossed with an easy calving Angus bull the AI tech had in hand, both were 7+ years. Both calved alone, one in the field at 300 days. Beautiful big vibrant calfs. The smaller is 20kg heavier that a pure born that week. The larger is catching up her mum at 6mnths. Ai'ed a further handful to Black ...

We used to get grass rolls at £4 for 25kg.

Has anyone used them with cattle?

I see, shame. Would be a nice clientele to acquaint with the name but it seems lake district longhorn are the order of the day.

Does anyone know who supplys Forman & Field? They have Dexter beef in this year's Christmas catalog. I wonder what they pay for DW?

I have emailed the society three times this month and yet to recive a reply.

When it comes down to it though it doesn't mean a damn, all it takes is a pair of cutters and a pair of tags and the certified dexter beef is a stunted AA cross. Traceability is fine but Some People will fiddle if they are so inclined. And as to the content of mass or even niche products, some peopl...

Brisket always becomes Pastrami in our house but I do miss a nice piece braised in IPA. Current favorite is Jacobs Ladder, this cut splits down into 3 small pieces which if rolled and tied individually make a perfect individual portion for beef bourguignon. Unfortunately not all butchers will give y...

That would be like saying an electronic edition if a book is not an ebook because it is not registered with kindle. It is what it is regarless of outside influence. Granted- without regulation it is open to abuse, but what isn't.... My beef is from a steer, bred out of a pedigree dexter cow, sired b...

Are the Kirkpatricks members on this board? If so may I inquire as to their username?

Does anyone have any photo's of Mackoy other than the two in the AI section on here? (I have dowloaded the higher rez version elsewhere)

Many thanks
