Gotta get in that box and watch the scales neilo !!!

Yes dogs/foxs eating carcasses and contaminating pastures,Ours was off rented ground with lots dog walkers, and neighbours who weren't clearing up deadstock.Gave up ground and never had a case since,

Could be cysticercus tenuicollis ,think that's a tape worm something to do with unwormed dogs

Some of the buyers you wonder do they ever look at a kill sheet, let alone match it to a particular lot number.Butcher buyers are far more selective in their lamb selection imo.

Told today Merthryr 4.30 tue /wed dropping for weekend

Have had one condemned ,not charged for disposal.

Do you find much difference of killout % and grading between abattoirs ?

Anyone got NSL prices for Farmers Fresh or Merthyr for this week/weekend ? thanks

Bet that soon brought the hammer down!

At least try a Lucas, a very good machine

For going through used needles to prevent them sticking into things.

On same theme to try a ram lamb would you put with a small group of 20 or so and leave for couple cycles or put with larger mob until20 marked then cover with experienced ram.

Do you usually get to the scales to see the weight? I have always been happy after doing this.

Weight depends on which auctioneer weighs lambs

Do you use a terminal breed over these or plan to? If so do you sell lw or dw ,how do they sell / grade .Sold mostly as hoggets?
