it’s only because mine are all that small if I looked at the price per head I’d go jump in the canal holding a mineral block!

I was doing a few feet on the hoggs today, a few Cheviots went past me just about reached my knee at the shoulders...
Either they haven’t grown or damn me I bought some little sh!t in November...

While I missed out on the fun in the markets this week. At least I got the last of the heifers and the dry cows out on grass this morning! Small victories

it wasnt the responsibility of one person ,it was the responsibility of the uk feed industry which lobbied the govt to reduce feed standards to maximise their profits, nothing has changed where govts put the interests of the wealthiest 1% ahead of the 99% but the public will never grasp this because the 1% run mainstrem media

They are allowed to lobby , it’s the silly buggers who pandered to their desires that the problem lay with , as said I wonder if someone knows I made that call ! The wrong call .

One would consider Hogs to go shorter next week and the price be supported by the strong spring lamb trade as the festival period ends

I’m thinking hoggs will possibly get dearer and in short supply towards the end of the month
I’ve also been told this too
Go South Molton yesterday? Any different?

A very solid trade but possibly not as keen for the heavys...but fantastic non the less

I was kinda thinking that ...but down here in the westcountry you lose buyers to some degree as lambs are coming thick and fast...and teeth erupt at an alarming rate

Teeth up hasn’t been making much difference on Wednesday night I was told. More important to turn up with finish on them.
Yes I often wonder if hoggs must be stronger up here there’s not much spring lamb the go this end at the moment. You can tell by the amount of hoggs heading north. Most hoggs yesterday weren’t local so I was told

I must admit when we were drawing we were looking at teeth. Keeping any on that had put teeth up to cure the job with weight. Blackie tups were the worst offenders but they do grow
