I'm struggling to believe that, have you seen their figures?, or is that what they've told you, certainly not the experience I've had(but I'm only small fry), its alright going lambing for others, but you can only earn what they are prepared to pay you, there's a ceiling, where as if he were to run a 1000 grazing ewes along side his tack sheep, he'd struggle to lose money in my opinion, and if he had a fair do it would make that lambing money look pretty sick.Out of the 3 options running cull ewes until the spring is probably the best but there are plenty of blokes who are in markets every week that have been caught out buying and selling them the last couple of years. If I had spare time in the spring I'd go out lambing for other people, no risks, no costs and none of that fancy equipment needed!
