Apart from the odd farm, most I know sell most of there lambs in June-October so this “big” uplift in price has only really benefited the store lamb buyers down here anyway

We havnt had sheep for over 20years
but keep in constant contact with several who do & every extra penny has been needed this last 12months there all saying & iam sure there 100% correct.

That’s right most haven’t seen the benefit yet. But us store lamb sellers might have a good autumn if every man and his dog want to keep Hogg’s until May next year.

Paying for next years losses.

Paying this months kennel bill

 

[MOG]

Not that I got any more than last year as I was sold out by early December, but even if I had made a few bob more, that has been more than wiped out by the 20+% loss of lambs to my first Enzootic abortion storm I am currently experiencing. Anyway, I am firmly of the opinion that the minute the population can get back into pubs and restaurants, and lunch-time sandwich bars and cafes, then the price will drop back to more "normal" levels. I hope I am wrong though.
