Have they ever got there before? And what is the dearest hoggs ever got to.?

Nope, even selling my privates Id struggle at the moment with that.

I have sold 42kg live to £142.....but they were very good lambs bought by the local top end butchers, not run of the mill stuff.

You mean in terms of price going up?
Well I am not talking down...as they say the only way is up....I will tell you exactly whats going to happen...just listen guys carefully....in about 2 weeks or so they will drop the d/w price 20p per kilo simply because on a rising market sellers start to dry up..hogs will flood out in panic..they may even drop it for 2 weeks in a row....but after that we will see some serious fun...its just plain market mechanics

I was told and I have seen it all before...think about it...its simply market mechanics and how the stock market works...a big order comes in...drop the bid and sellers rush for the exit,hence plenty of supply , if the price keeps rising everyone is sitting comfortably..
