Has anyone else had low kill percentages with lambs this year? Put a batch of lambs in last week at 44kgs liveweight and they came back at just over 17kgs DW or 38% some hill lambs but plenty of continentals in there to. Graded well with all either 3Ls or 3hs so not as if they were lean. Buyer tells me they’re having lots killing out poorly but just interested if this is the case with other farmers. I’ve checked my weigh scales and they’re bang on.
