Weanling sale, Tuesday 1 September 2026
- Weanling bulls €5.24/kg* mean of bands
- Weanling heifers €5.09/kg* mean of bands
Reasonable size sale today after our show & sale last week with 444 on offer. There was some nice in-calf suckler stock and these met a fine trade especially for stock near calving. Top price in this section was €5,300, with many lots making €3,000 plus. The lighter runner bulls and weanlings up to 300kgs held a good trade and averaged €5.45/kg. Bulls over 350kgs were easier by 10-15c/kg. We also had a good entry of organic stock and these met great demand, with plenty of customers for these. Heifer weanlings back about 5c/kg on last week.
