Euro quality craven armsI don’t know where they send them but they are buying lambs to kill send a lot away on keep for themselves too.
Last year we were cashing some that were nicely finished but lacking a bit of weight they were coming to canny money but I don’t think that will wash this timeYear on year our better lambs are £10 less but the poorer lambs are dearer so overall not much difference. I have a feeling next year we could be looking back at these prices favourably as it’s going to be a bumpy ride.

Which market report have you got 155p from last year?Last year live was 155 this week , this year its 10-15p more
Decent firm, I use to send ewes and lambs into them a few years agoHalal firm.
Yours would be really good quality as well.Does it not p!ss you off when you just get in the 70s for all your hard work? Theres a fair number of proper store buyers will pay in the 70s for good quality at Hexham,to sell later in the season.Pretty rubbish to be honest, certainly the worst trade we have had all season with the lambs. Massive ewe show so mine had not been sold when I left but not expecting as they looked back a bit as well.View attachment 721318
I’m sure the fat lifted a fair bit in October last yearYours would be really good quality as well.Does it not p!ss you off when you just get in the 70s for all your hard work? Theres a fair number of proper store buyers will pay in the 70s for good quality at Hexham,to sell later in the season.
I think it will lift a bit but it won’t be a vast amount. January and the first half of February is always a drag I think everyone is skintIt won’t lift in October this year. Not wanting to talk trade down. But a Waiting list to go deadweight now. Having to wait 10-14 days for uplift
