BREEDING SHEEP - MONDAY 7TH MAY 2018

2,899 Breeding Sheep comp 1059 Geld Gimmer Hoggs and 747 Outfits Breeding Sheep with 1093 lambs at foot A very busy day today for our Annual May Day Prize Sale of Breeding Sheep with nearly 3,000 head penned for sale. The Geld Gimmer Hoggs sold first and this years entry was very mixed for quality, and trade was reasonably for the best end, but just steady for the next grade, with fat price looking a back up option for anything that was not at the top of its game.

 



However, the hoggs with lambs at foot were a firm trade all sale long, Texels £200 - £250. John & George Stapleton, Skibeden topping the sale with their first prize pen at £260, with a 2nd pen at the same money. Best Mules either side of £200, to a top of £230 from Raymond and Robert Johnson, some more commercial types of hoggs with lambs £160 - £180.

 

Another good show of sheep for next week, expecting approximately 500 outfits, entries to the mart office by Friday 12noon.
