[QUOTE="CopperBeech, post: 7621939, member: 8925"] This year you could have sent anything live at all and you’d have made a good coin. I bought some tiny little shedding store lambs in December and sold them on as 30kg stores for £90-£95 😂 but normal years shedding lambs are best sold dead unless you know buyers are there for them. Can be difficult to place store lambs, but if you have any decent number of decent shedding store lambs I will come and give you a price for the lot. With regard to ewes often find ewes are better off sold live, but got to pick your market especially for shedders. We use Rugby as they probably have the greatest number of buyers for ewes and a home for most types. However plain types with a smaller carcass I usually find better on the hook. Can usually get £65-75 on the hook for shedders, but this year have been killing them through the live market for £90-£150. [/QUOTE]
