Carlisle average was up yesterday at 253p,up nearly 10p. Must have been some good lambs in.Do you put Beltex on your Chev Mules,or just a good Texel?
No just a big plain texel and we then keep the ewe lambs for replacements then put a beltex on them.
carlisle fat lambs on a Monday are a tremendous show of lambs

I didn’t think the shearlings looked silly dear compared to breeding sale reports I’ve had. I went to try and buy some strong lambs and ended up buying 60 shearlings ave £178 which in my opinion looked dam good value against the lamb trade where the very best were £200, Tuppers £140-170 and running lambs very little under £130.
To be fair I would think some of the shearling vendors would struggle to buy replacements at a price that would look to leave much margin in the future, but that’s just my humble opinion

We averaged £181 for our run of shearlings topping at £195. Which would be back on the year. Only managed to get 82 lambs bought trade for them would probably be dearer than last year and made shearlings look alot better value.

Is she a Bobbie or a Bobbit?
Mrs Bobbit did something nasty to Mr Bobbit's boabie.
NofE Mules at Skipton averaged £176 a rise of £26 on the year, that's a fair trade for them I would say.
