Kirkby Stephen – Suckled Calves 2004

Champion beast with, from left to right, the vendor Mr H R Hayton, the judge Mr N Slack, Mr J Guy representing sponsor J G Animal Health and Mr G Starkie representing sponsor Dugdale Nutrition.

Harrison & Hetherington Ltd held their Great Annual Prize Show & Sale of Suckled Calves at Kirkby Stephen Mart on Monday 1st November 2004 where there was an entry of 720 head.

As usual a great ringside of buyers was present at this popular sale and witnessed a tremendous show where top honours went to Messrs H R Hayton & Son, Asby Grange with a Limousin cross bullock purchased by the judge Mr Neil Slack. It was not easily done though as Messrs K A Brown & Sons, Asby Hall brought forward a great Belgian Blue Cross Bullock to take the Reserve Championship.

Best cattle sold especially well, but commercial heifers found a better following than commercial bullocks to average only £19.84 less on the year.
