YORK AUCTION MART D & S KITCHING Self Drive and Operated Plant Hire • • • • • • • • Thursdays and usually see around 100-150 cattle and once again variable numbers of sheep with regard to the season.’ Scott Ferrie’s Pedigree All Breeds Cattle sales have now been held three times – in spring and autumn in 2013 and just a few weeks ago the second spring sale took place. He’s already looking forward to yet another successful sale in the autumn as breeders are starting to take note that they don’t have to travel to Carlisle and the Borders in order to buy or sell pedigree stock. The 11th Spring Rare Breeds Sale will have taken place by the time you’re reading this and the 28th Autumn Rare Breeds Sale is scheduled over two days in October (Friday 3 – Saturday 4). This has now become so popular that entries are encouraged as early as possible. Horse sales are run monthly in the market’s purpose built equestrian centre that includes stabling for over 60 horses. It is largely a sale for those who have horses for pleasure and around 100 are sold each month.
