I had a clear up today.
Last 6 springers made £120 (40kg)
11 barren tegs made £115 (48.5kg)
18 hoggets (Beltex x and Charollais X) made £129 (45.5kg) - they were nice things though.
6 cull Highlander ewes that were too thin to take a month ago made £71.50.

Pleased enough with that for a clear out. Just wish I had some more, but only a handful of cull ewes to find once they're out of withdrawal.

Don’t know but springers want killing the same day

Depends who buys 'em. Apparently some would be Sat night but I guess mostly Sunday - a lot of abattoirs are, how should we say, not under Christian control nowadays
