Big Texel x ewes £136
Medium texel x £120
Small but fat cheviots £80
Best trade for ewes for a long time I thought.
Beltex hoggs 46kg £150 pretty much stand on.
Texel x hoggs 46kg £151
Beltex tup hoggs 43kg £151
Tex x Chev tup hoggs 45kg 140
Chev mules 47kg £143
Plainer hoggs would be up £10-£15 on 2 weeks ago for me.

Sent some smaller R grade heifers to ABP. The very last of the '22 crop at £5.02/kg. Heard today of a man buying some heifers privately off farm at £3.40/kg. Interesting stats on the MQ report as well saying that 65,000 sucklers went from ROI and 75,000 from the UK in 2023. Not sure that me putting an extra 25 heifers to the bull will quite make up the shortfall.....

Had 42kg hoggs of on monday, £120.
Feeder ewes 2 at 78 and one at 85. Considering they had nae teeth and had them for 5 years and don't think they cost much over £60 then.
