[QUOTE="Al R, post: 7555297, member: 7565"] All dead or all sold to 1 person direct like cull ewes. Scab, distance, time, corruption, poor prices to name a few things. last Year I failed to fit 25 lambs on a lorry going DW. I scanned the tags and took them straight to mart, declaring as they were being sold that they couldn’t fit on the lorry but they were all fit to kill ( All 38-42kg ) £21/head difference between the ones that went direct and the ones I took to the mart plus I wasted 6 hours being there 🤦🏻♂️I realised after it would have been quicker for me to have taken the lambs passed the mart and straight to slaughterhouse and been £525 better off. Those of you with good marts not far away don’t realise how lucky you are! [/QUOTE]
