Hereford Ewes Yesterday:

CULL EWES - 1787, GOATS - 72 Auctioneers - Rob Meadmore/Phil Jones A much improved entry greeted by a much improved trade and again sheep travelling a long distance to be sold at Hereford. Generally a better standard on offer, with the highest price achieved for a single pure bred ewe for some time at £245, a whole penful of 18 at £188, and several between £163 and £180. Crossbred ewes having a lift with all customers most active and animated, with both strong Texels and Suffolks from £120 to £150. Marvellous demand for Mules again with plenty of pens between £120 and £130, lighter and leaner all over £100. Hill breeds sharp, best between £80 and £90.

Unusual for Hereford, an entry of Blackface ewes proved very popular topping at £100.50, with penfuls at £80 and £86. Rams a bit subdued but still top price of £142, others at £125, £123 etc. Again a much increased entry of goats, and as every week excellent competition and prices with a top price of £148 and an average of £124.

Overall ewe average £100.55 (again up £6 on the week) Continental £245.00 Suffolk £151.00 North Country Mule £120.00 Welsh Mule £112.00 Blackface £100.50 Welsh £90.00 Cull Rams £142.00 Cull Wethers £118.00 Goats £148.00 For advice on marketing cull stock please contac
