Beef / Lamb & Pig Price Tracker

[hally]

Just watched a few weaners at Carlisle on line.Just finished selling. I wouldnt have liked to be selling today.Two pens of 7 named sire Angus steers and heifers £630 and £500.Little better than calf prices.There seemed to be any amount of decent cattle in the £600s.They must be almost £200/head less than for same size cattle from May/June.

At Hexham today, suckler heifers and calves took 3k for ought decent, 3.5k for smart outfits. Come home empty.

 

[Estate fencing.]

What weights do you think they are

30-32 something like that for this bigger pen, maybe 25 for the small. Healthy late born lambs that have been vaccinated and never had a worm burden but just small.

Don’t worry you didn’t miss any bargains, I’ve learned today not to value stock on the lap top

So , sheepman tells me the export job to france is dead .

Tell me about it , personally like a bit of lamb , the offerings over the water are disgraceful , even the dog might pull his nose up ;

Eventually found some thing with meat on , but jesus it was difficult , talk about cutting your nose off
