Few lambs left here, 37/38 to 44kg but needing a bit more flesh. Have been getting a pound of meal a day.. not really enough to flesh up with all that rain.they are not loosing weight but not going too far either. Grass is scarce here.
Option 1) sell as stores, less work, on paper less money but quick out of the way.
Option2) put inside and feed adlib, more work, on paper a few more pound at the end. With straw, meal and silage more expensive this year is debatable if its worth it.
Option 3) pile on the food outside. Slower to finish but no straw, no cleaning shed, no silage..
I am thinking option 1 or 3 but see what people here think is best. Thanks.
