[QUOTE="Al R, post: 7796960, member: 7565"] Another nail in your idea, I have to sign declarations that the lambs I send off have not given birth, a few years ago I had some ewe lambs give birth to decent twins but they were poor mothers so adopted them onto ewes that needed them, left the ewe lambs 2 weeks for udders to rise and then sent them to mart and declared they had lambed. They were all good meat and around 50kg, Had around half what they were worth compared to lambs which hadn’t lambed, they didn’t come to much more than £1/kg, probably 3-4 years ago, the first year that lambs hit £6/kg DW.
