I thought the sheep looked mental price in Shrewsbury today jeez wouldn’t want chop some them up for thatShould have said that’s Shrewsbury
no just once every couple of months!Have you been watching that on repeat all afternoon ?
Maybe not a lot to be made out of the hogg job, folk still selling them now just over the hundred, cant tell me they have paid, unless they were almost given them!Spoke to someone this afternoon that had bought his first 250 store lambs- 29kg were £72.50. Didn’t sound out of the way.
Be surprised how some of these less fashionable sheep will grow given time. Ours cost 63 a piece this year. Patience grows the money!!Maybe not a lot to be made out of the hogg job, folk still selling them now just over the hundred, cant tell me they have paid, unless they were almost given them!

You can tell you had an “expert” hand drawing those sheep…First draw. All off grass, all Welsh and Welsh X ewes
They were alright if you kept the ones that weren’t worth much to start with or bought with caution but still no records broken after all thatMaybe not a lot to be made out of the hogg job, folk still selling them now just over the hundred, cant tell me they have paid, unless they were almost given them!
I think you’ll be right. Other thing is dry weather won’t help the store lamb trade on top of all the increased input costs. Forecast is still no rain for the next couple of weeks.They’ll probably be £62 in September
If they do well they get fat too soon if they don’t it kind of spoils themShearing lads were saying yesterday. These store lamb sales get earlier every year. Those little lambs shouldn’t be getting weaned yet. They need this next month on their mothers to really get them going. Those bigger better sorts will take no harm. But the smaller ones, it’s too soon.
We broke no pots, it wasn’t much very excited when I’d finished paying the bills. But alright. Certainly had worse years! Although a few I know who got a bit carried away in November/December haven’t recouped all costs when everything was accounted for.They were alright if you kept the ones that weren’t worth much to start with or bought with caution but still no records broken after all that
Sold some lately £120 ish for tail end sorts best trade of all season
Looks to be hot with it ashwell.I think you’ll be right. Other thing is dry weather won’t help the store lamb trade on top of all the increased input costs. Forecast is still no rain for the next couple of weeks.
When we having that holiday up to Scotland this year?We broke no pots, it wasn’t much very excited when I’d finished paying the bills. But alright. Certainly had worse years! Although a few I know who got a bit carried away in November/December haven’t recouped all costs when everything was accounted for.
Best trade I had was January by miles!! Over £3/kg avg the whole month. Must adjust the crystal ball!
I do not sell in Rugby but just reporting comments made to me by a local seller about the situation, other comments on here would seem to back up the comments !?What’s rugby done too upset folk then? Iv had nothing but a pleasurable experience selling there last few months.. only negative I can see is if you like too stay and watch your sheep weighed and sold it could be mid afternoon before you see that
Heard they were turning ewes away, I wanted to send some but they weren't very keen so I'll take my business elsewhere.
melton,be a lot of ex rugby vendors there!!
I use both but I know where I feel more appreciated. As you know there's a lot of men in Melton that would have been rugby all there lives. Ml has done a good job getting the ewe numbers and trade to where it is now just don't tell him!
Few gone to Thrapstone too!
Telling regular customers to feck off won't help
She sold the lambs in Newark for a while and came across as being very competent and seemed to deal with the buyers well.Emma c
