Title: WANTED Tup hire E.Midlands
Post by: BenBhoy on August 08, 2015, 07:23:16 am

Hello
Look to borrow/hire a tup from start of November. Serving 10 happy, well fenced ewes. Not meaning to offend anyone but no primitive thanks. Would like any of:
Beltex
Charolais
Berrichon
Charmoise
Hampshire

Open to any other suggested breeds, but not a Suffolk.
Thanks.

Good morning,

I have a Ryeland proven shearling tup that would be available by then if your interested?

There may be a chance to borrow my charolais tup but I will need to take a closer look at my own tupping dates for that?

Im based near to Bakewell, Derbyshire and would be open to offers  :farmer:

Why not buy yourself a ram lamb which will easily sort 10 ewes and then sell him on again?
You may looses £50 on the deal but you will have more choice
