Whereabouts are you, Spursman? They are widespread, I know but the west country is still the best place to find them. There are a lot near me and I could ask around for you.

I am in Nottinghamshire but will travel.

See if you can get hold of a Saturday issue of the Western Morning news. Has all the sale dates of cattle in the South West , theres always lots of Ruby reds in them. Where I live in East Devon- its choca with them!
The sale details are only on Saturday issues of the paper!

Oooooh, pop a nice heifer on a train up to Carlisle would ya? I love the Red Devons, having lived in Exmoor for many years. I used a Red Devon on my Jersey but sadly she didn't hold ::) (twice ::)) and now seems to be held to the Jersey. Never mind, we used the other three straws on three of our Hereford x heifers (one of them a red one), so hopefully there'll be some rubies next year.
