Aye about £25 a piece more would be better …..they’ll need to start mixing old ewes with the cow meat to cheapen it a bit
yea sold some pure charollais last weekend thought they would have been nearer 120 , they came back at 99 was disappointed , they were worth another 30+ last nov , fkn processor games , there is no incentive in the job with feed north of £400t and all the catch crops burnt up with frost .

I assumed @andybk was talking about lambs, not barren ewes? Bad enough for lambs, but criminal if it was for ewes.

I had £100.50 for 41.5kg Exlanas today, one of which had recently shed in the shed (see what I did there? :facepalm: ), and way way way behind any terminal in terms of meat yield.
I also had a pen of barren Charollais ewes in at £206/hd.👍

Entry on sat was mostly made up of very poor/small hoggs so the average would be about right!

i was surprised the average was so high the week before tbh going on the entry and what i saw sold.

Good hoggs circa 35 kilos around the £75 mark on Sat!

Local collection centre was swamped with hoggs yesterday even with the current low deadweight price.

How come an Exlana is only 41.5 kgs now, that's less than most of my Beltexes which all the great and wise say are slow growing and they were born in April:eek:
