In these challenging times, we are keen to help our members promote their animals. Here are some of the animals taking part in the forthcoming Spring Sales with their respective lot numbers.
If you have animals entered in either the Society’s Online Sale via Sell My Livestock or the live sale at Oban with United Auctions, you may also like to promote them here. Just email your animal(s) details, along with at least one image and any video links to promotions@highlandcattlesociety.com today.
