The Tip Tree & Avondale Tuli auction was held in Grahamstown yesterday. 58 buyers registered for the sale where the 27 bulls and 15 registered females all sold exceptionally well.
The commercial females sold at market related prices, although demand on non heartwater animals was soft, resulting in a few not sold lots.
The top priced bull was lot 11, sold by Tip Tree Tulis, bought by Conrad Rautenbach from Zimbabwe for R130000. The same seller sold the most expensive females(lot 37 & 40), 2 pregnant heifers, to the same buyer for R36000.
The highest price of R21000 for commercial preg females was achieved by Roy & Lisa Guest from Southwell for a stunning parcel of dark red pregnant heifers.
Stephen Mains Sheard, Dave Mullins & the Hobson&Co team would like to thank everyone who participated in the sale for their support in creating a very, very good sale
