Just what’s gone, what’s dead, the b word will be delayed or sorted. Never been better prospects for hoggs

.............only one week this year (in Aug) have we killed more lambs than the corresponding week last year.
Just sayin'.
 
We hope it will be sorted! And where all the grass keep too? Thought no one had any grass...
I have more grass here than I have ever had at this time of year. Ground is dryer than ever for this time too. I still have more mouths than grass. My hoggs live on barley pellets and beet not much grass involved really

I’m still right though.

Half of them were dead before anyone started selling any!!!!

Only a percentage of ewes actually made it to lambing time never mind rearing a lamb

And there is them few inlamb gimmers that were killed in March and April

Throw that rubbish away probably dreamt up by reliable AHDB anyway

I still got my cattle out eat grass. And I just finish off grass so I won't be buying so many this year. Plus not convinced about Brexit.
