As our ground at home is heavy and prone to poaching the 7 Dexters at home have been housed for the past 3 weeks. We have 8 acres away from the farm which is sandy soil and ideal for the cattle at this time of year. We have 6 Dexters on this ground, 2 heifers and 4 cows due to calve end Feb to end M...

I agree with all Jac's comments. Re Mike Frasers proposal, surely having 15 Regional committee members plus 9 trustees is too many and could be difficult to manage at meetings, especially if the Regional committee members are limited to what they may be able to discuss and make decisions on. Is less...

RE my proposal I have been contacted to ask if I have any objections for my proposal to be discussed at the next Council meeting and I am happy for it to be discussed. It is interesting to read in the latest Bulletin, the Discussion Paper put forward by Mike Fraser re Regional representation, sounds...

Hi Mark, Thanks for posting your steer stats. It's nice to read something different for a change as opposed to people's concerns on the running of the society. Detailed below are our deadweight carcass stats compiled since 2012. The carcass weights are mostly steers and are a mix of homebred and bou...

Hi Jac. I disagree strongly with your view that the Dexter has always been a hobby cow. Although we only have 13 head at present they are run commercially. We have 2 flocks of pedigree sheep and the cattle are invaluable at cleaning up the sheep pastures and both the sheep and cattle benefit each ot...

Spoke to Jonny Dymond. The Dexters are for an export order for Ireland.
