I am looking for a good quality visiting bull for hire. Can anyone help? I have a field full of cattle that need surveing. Unfortunatly our usual visiting bull is not availiable, but due to blue tongue restrictions, i don't think he could come anyway.
We are based in Nottingham, Southwell. We'd be willing to pick up or take back, regarding where your based.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks Lewis Moore (aged 16)

Hi Lewis, i have just found out Leics and Notts are in the protection zone for BT as from Monday 19th May. That may alter your plans.

Hi Mark, Does this mean i will have to find a bull within the protection zone? or will it stop people hiring out there bulls?

Lewis, besides Blue Tongue, you also need to bear in mind TB testing zones. For example, my bulls can only visit herds within 4 year TB testing areas outside the blue tongue surveillance & protection zones.

Yes Lewis, you will be restricted to finding a bull within the protection zone at the moment.
Best of luck
