Hi duncan,
Not sure what type of testing is required, but Agribiogen in Germany do scrapie genotyping, not sure about DNA. Worth checking with them.

Re: dexters for sale
Prior to Jean having Simply Red on hire we had him on loan in the Brereton herd. Just to endorse Jeans comments excellent temperament etc. we also have 2 superb heifer calves by him. If anyone is after a red Dexter bull he is well worth hiring.

Re: Dexter at Chelford
I would imagine most vendors would have been disappointed with prices at chelford. Cows with calves at foot ranged from 240 to 330 Gns. We bought a nice steer 14 months old (non short) for 250 Gns. Highlight of the sale of Dexters was our 14 month old short legged black heifer who was placed Third i...

Castration
During the past 3 years we have bought 4 batches of steers from 3 different breeders . Of the 12 cattle purchased we have had a problem from each breeder with cattle that have not been castrated properly .
