I can’t like this enough, for about 2seconds I thought I’d got the job wrong supplying what the market wantsWhat a load of rubbish you write sometimes!
At this time of the year butchers do not want large carcasses, I have orders for 17 to 19 kg and not over so lambs at 35 or even down to 33 kg are ideal as they will kill (in local abattoir!) well over 50% if they are nice fresh and fleshed lambs.
So getting around £90.00 at the moment I would have said was a good move.
The numbers that are now coming forward will mean the price will be dropping every week and by the time these lambs get to 40's they will probably only be £2.20'
As someone else pointed out you can't sell them twice so there are less later on!!
