Good job you had a mask on. I had £95 for brokers 2 weeks ago with singles! Those hoggs are a good buy.

Ranged from £81-£120 a life. Avg at £99. They should do the job nicely and I’ve hedged my bets a bit for replacements in the autumn.

I would agree that it is late in the day to make announcements and I am told it will be this week.

I've done the sums for my flock and it averages around 25 pence for each sheep shorn. Seriously tempting to keep the wool back for its fertiliser value - has anyone done the maths on it?

You better have deep pockets and long arms!

The quality hfr & calves were serious money today in llandovery via the live stream but i thought the first cross suckler cows/hfrs didnt look over dear.

My valuation of 2k for the herd dispersal cows in ludlow today was between £500-1200 to low , there seems plenty willing to give 3k+ for a shapey outfit and i think trades only going to firm.
Brecon lim bull sale on the live stream tomorrow.

I like to pay top dollar to get my Swale wool up to 5p per kilo
Or as the wool board like to put it in ‘000’s
Like they show the wages

Swale. Mule. per kilo in £ 000’s

000000,5. 00000,15

Per kilo in £ 000’s

Wages in £ 000’s

166

98

So it would take 3,320,000 kilos of Swale wool to get to one years wage at £166,000

In your attempt to use the word arse...you unintentionally tagged @RSE into the thread...he now is wondering why he’s been tagged into a shifty arsed lamb pic...

 

[Anymulewilldo]

Leek tomorrow or you done on couples now??? Wondering if I should bother

In the nicest possible way... the sheep in Leek aren’t up too my standard most of the time... I can see them being dear there myself. Robert is no fool!!

That 6.40 for hoggs looks good compared to mart prices unless the mart ones presented are under done
