A lot from around here are going Holmfirth now. (Better type lambs admittedly) and are having a right good do. Still plenty of butchers but there I’m told?

I see Longtown has advertised 4 brand new, bought in the spring but never used, Portequip Hogg Hoppers for sale


Someone has obviously had the plan to be Billy big balls in the finishing game... then had 2nd thoughts and shat the bed at both the store lamb and feed prices

Think they were originally bought by AS

I'd say that'll be about current new price.

More at sales as farmers take the cheque book with them and leave their brains at home .

Bill will just bung it another billion and they'll pretend all is well

Any report from Carlisle stores and weaners today ? @aangus ?

Any report from Carlisle stores and weaners today ? @aangus ?

Bulls looked cheaper and more in, weaners down as well. A few buyers missing today and a late finish due to store numbers and a big dairy sale prevented them from taking the bulls into ring 3. Getting on for 4 o clock when they finished I would think, no good for selling that, the ring was quiet by then. Not sure about the stores.

Bentham turned the sound off, wonder if theyre not hitting the mark
Looked a decent trade before like!

@Nithsdale Farmer didn’t see that

Had some store lambs at Longtown yesterday.
Slightly cheaper on the week to average £114. But my lambs were perhaps not quite as good. I got the impression trade had eased back slightly.

Must be very good store lambs for that, where they fit?
