EasyCare flock reduction - Bingley, West Yorkshire

Circa 200 flock aged EasyCare ewes bred to strict EasyCare values, outdoors in the South Pennines for around 20 years on hard, unimproved ground at 650 ft to 1000 ft. We get wind and lots of rain, usually, however, we have had no grass at all for about two months so we are currently having to feed liquid molasses. We also provide Himalayan Red Rock salt all year round and we copper bolus the ewes as we are high in ground iron in our area.

With strong feet, very hardy, fiesty natures and excellent mothering abilities these ewes are only for sale due to their owners being old and a bit knackered, we just need to have less sheep. Our sheep do such a fantastic job for surviving we have a lot of sheep at the moment.

Watch Clarkson's Farm series 5, the EasyCare's are our four and six toothed EasyCare ewes, they did exactly what we said they would do, including refusing to run towards an electric fence and a 10 strong film crew the day after they had completed a five hour trip! They also lambed outside and reared their lambs with no fuss and bother and no interference.

When we started our EasyCare journey we were told to buy binoculars and leave them to get on with their job. That's the rule on this farm.

A mix of 2025, 2024, 2023 & 2021 females are offered.

We prefer to sell as a group as they have all lived together and you will get some excellent family groups. The photo's were taken when we were weaning a fortnight/three weeks ago. They have recovered well since the lambs have been taken off, further photos can be provided.

Trying to take photos of the young Stabiliser bulls today

The end of an era. Our last breeding heifers have left to live at the seaside in Hampshire. We have finished with suckler cows.

We started with Stabiliser cattle in 2002 and have had a great time visiting breeders all over the UK and the States.

Together we started with cattle in 1980 rearing calves, we then realised it was easier to let mum do the rearing so bought Hereford x Friesan cattle. The demise of the Friesan resulted in hat rack type Holstein x cows that couldn't hack our farm.

A meeting in Garstang given by Richard Fuller of the Stabiliser Cattle Company in 2001 was our epiphany moment. We bought pure cattle from Driffield and inseminated the cross breds. We travelled to Duncan Davison's (Persimmon) farm in Northumberland to buy our first bull and then introduced US embryos over the years.

Stabiliser cattle are docile, easy calving and produce tasty meat.
