Judging pre sales is not for the faint hearted, I’ve seen some of them judges made to look rather silly when the bidding starts.
I’ve never fancied trying too judge hill bred tups. The Swales I wouldn’t give time of day too seem too make silly money!Judging pre sales is not for the faint hearted, I’ve seen some of them judges made to look rather silly when the bidding starts.
I just tell them I'll judge if youre stuck but im not buying owt ...leave it up to them.Old fella says when they ask you too judge it’s time too move on. They’re getting too comfortable with you!

I cross out the FCI bit now if sending animals to mart and put ''not under restrictions for medicine residues'' insteadI’m with Guth on this if you sign an FCI and declare it’s fit for the food chain and it turns out it’s not well......... however if it wasn’t killed for more than a week after purchase I would be having a word and suggest 1/3 each mate fit when I sold it
Imagine buying calves and the mart reimbursing for all the ones with scours in the next week!Going back to the deduction for a lamb that died a week after it was sold at Auction then this is not correct.
"Caveat Emptor" Buyer Beware is what occurs at any auction and at the fall of the hammer the ownership changes to the successful bidder.
There are always a few provisos such as buying animals guaranteed in lamb or in calf. Or Vice Versa!!
The auctioneer should never have taken the money off for a sheep that died a week after the sale or even a day after.

Somebody correct me if I’m wrong but it’s not at the fall of the hammer but once youv loaded them out of the pens... sure auctions say “buyers should satisfy themselves with sheep before loading no warranty can be given once sheep have left there pens” or something along those lines....
difference between commercial and ram sellers lol , i replaced a ram that died a week or two after i sold it through the ring ,(stress i would think ) buyer didnt ask , just wanted and was prepared to pay for another , would do the same with a commercial lamb as well as i would assume i had done all i could to prevent future issues within reason .Going back to the deduction for a lamb that died a week after it was sold at Auction then this is not correct.
