SALE OF THE MILKING PORTION FROM THE RUTHWELL HERD OF PEDIGREE HOLSTEIN FRIESIANS for The Firm of DR Bell, North Bowerhouses Farm, Ruthwell, DumfriesshireWednesday 26th October 2005 |
Buyers from both Scotland and England arrived at Borderway Mart on
26th October 2005 to see the milking portion from Ronnie Bell’s
Ruthwell herd go under the hammer.
The herd was a credit to Ronnie with several of the young cows and heifers selling to 1,000gns or more. Many of the sires used in the herd trace back to Annandale breeding and this resulted in strong cows with great feet and legs and well attached udders.
The top price of the day went to lot 134 Ruthwell Lucian a daughter of Moet Deidre Dependable and just fresh mid October and giving 32kgs of milk. She sold for 1,100gns to Messrs N Nicholson & Son of Newhouse Farm, Stepford Road, Dumfries.
The next highest price of 1,050gns came for lot 129 Ruthwell Kimberly which sold fresh giving 35kgs. She along with many other great animals from this herd sold to Messrs DW Crichton & Sons of Rue Farm, Stepford Road, Dumfries.
