Person that asked me that question has been trolling me for some time on TFF thus why I gave the reply I did.

And this person never puts up any prices on this thread either!

Fair enough , but I think a lot of people on here need to mind their p's & q's because its dragging the forum down. In fact I think it may be a good idea to step in in a few cases. We are all supposed to be helping one another. Not ripping each other apart.

I totally agree with this and that is what I try to do but more often than not recently it gets thrown back in my face when I try to help people.

It didn't used to be like this, not sure why its changed so much for the worse tbh.

Sorry for rant , I missed out the word moderators as well. Some people need reprimanding. Not just this thread.

Im not intrested in taking cheap shots at people.

I would much rather this and other threads were always on topic and we wouldn't have posts like cull cows put up last night.

These are usefull threads for a lot of people to hear what trade is like at markets and ask prices etc.

Out of intrest how often do you post prices on this thread hummin-cummins??

I will post next week when i sell my first lot of cattle I’ve ever sold through the market as have always sold privately to a close farming friend

I couldn’t agree more it gets off topic and its not good for the thread or forum but from what i can see you’re no better than the next man.

Im sorry its merely an observation im not looking for an argument

No one is faultless and that includes myself but some posters just come on threads now and again like the beef tracker and forage tracker ones trying to both make themselves look clever and also to cause trouble.

I try to keep out of the arguments in my old age these days ( unlike a couple of years ago

) but when a handful of members keep trolling you or making comments like cull cows did last night ( which was totally uncalled for ) and nothing is done about them it gets hard not to respond.

Thanks is that cattle up this week. Thought lambs would be more.

Skintagain · Aug 28, 2018

The lamb job surely is set To get very dear. £1.90’s averages going into September makes for a storming trade later on.

Greythundercloudys · Aug 28, 2018

Yes, 188 at Stirling today, but stores weren't much dearer yesterday, you could get nice lambs for around 60.

I like the idea of storming, might make a few quid on the stores Ive been buying. Mind you some of those are already fit and will be going soon.

Because everyone will cash them in now whilst they’re a good trade and before the cost a fortune in expensive feed and therefore they’ll be a shortage in the spring.....the end

Pretty much, every year, a graph of lamb prices follows this pattern......

........... @Skintagain is merely taking the current price and extrapolating it into next year.

It didn't seem as good as that last April!
