Beef / Lamb & Pig Price Tracker

[livestock 1]

Stores were still a good trade, felt some of the ewe lambs were not too expensive considering shearling sales.

Rams a strong trade for time of year, especially suffolks.

I was looking for a Suffolk tup or two this time, couldn’t buy any they were that dear and shyte too. And that’s bearing in mind we are running between £400 and £850 for tups

80 grand bf lmb at lanark, so not the 100grand plus talked about, wish l had one to sell.

You would be no better off than selling one for £300

What you paid £850 for. Bought all mine private this time and happy with what I have got as long as they work. Fancy a beltex cross next year but you don’t see many round here. Suffolk I have is on his fourth season and has thrown some good lambs.

the lad who sold about 16 Suffolk ram lambs had a good day. He wanted to average £220. Sold sone for over £400.

One or two were ok but yes, quality was lacking!

Nothing wrong with them, problem is dare i suggest it that you should have sent them a lot sooner, total different ball game fattening native V cont x cattle.
