Broken mouth mules

[Keepers]

I've got a few hundred mule brokers to sell, any idea on their value?

I buy a few brokers but never mules so not sure!

 

[MJT]

£60-70 ? Although usually when mules are broken mouthed they only end up going one way.

 

[Keepers]

That's the thing!

Got 560 to go off one place, about 60 % broken mouth or other minor thing but good in bag etc and 40% cull for bad bag or other more major thing.

Two folk coming to look this weekend and had people saying they worth everything from £35 - £75.

 

[MJT]

If they've just lost tooth off side and good ewes then yeah £75 not far off to right person I'd have thought

 

[Guiggs]

Are these NC mules?
Price has dropped over the past couple of weeks since I saw them sold but..thin brokers sound in the bag making 50 odd then fit / sound brokers over £80...

 

[Keepers]

Yes all NC mules.

Got a feeling those who are coming will try to offer too little..........

If your going to sell get them gone unless you can keep them till Christmas they will only head one way now I fear.
Too many Overtons to make a guess but if your not to far away give Bentham Auction a ring they would love you to send them there and would give you a good idea of value. There's cast ewes there from virtually every where in the country plus Ireland and the Isle of Man most Wed evenings

Lot of sheep come up to Bentham from the far south

There's a decker comes up from your way @Keepers every Wed and then goes to Longtown the day after. So you could see if Bentham or Longtown give you the better deal and make your choice and have some bargaining power to boot for your folk that want to buy them at home
