Do they go through an agent? I have heard their killing a lot of bulls in there
A very small lean char, looked healthy enough, but didn't look right if you know what I mean.All things considered it sounds like you had a decent trade on those Angus
What made £250 head?
Small cattle sound very cheap for this time of year at £450/500 head!
Cant see how anyone can keep a suckler cow for 12 months in the long term returning those prices
What ages were the Blues?
£94 for 48kg charollais hoggs, cull ewes not good. Looked to be a lot of lambs coming in.Averaging around 227pk ( so up 6/7pk on the week )
Still to hear how SM did today.
I think it will be alot of years before we see last years prices again,if ever.It will be interesting to see how people will market their lambs this season.Will everything go as soon as they hit 40kg or so "in spec",even in the glut in September/October for £60,or still keep them through the Winter?What a difference a year makes on the hoggs...

Ewes are back £12-15 on the year and there back in numbersI can’t understand why the ewe trade is so poor,also very surprised at the numbers coming out still.Anyone got a comparison on last year?
