1008 PRIME LAMBS
A tremendous entry of prime lambs to finish 2018. Not our normal day and we therefore thank Vendors for going the extra mile to consign stock. The purchasers are also thanked for breaking their normal buying pattern to accommodate this sale. We had worked hard to promote the sale having had very positive feedback from our abattoir customers. It was seriously worth it. The average was better than expected for the quality forward with lambs from across the weight spectrum actively competed for by our quality buyers. The medium lambs were especially well sold averaging £2.19ppk. Smaller lambs were however more difficult to place. We will provide another opportunity to take advantage of the current trade on Tuesday 1st January 2019. Follow our predictions through the week via social media and the website and we hope for another fast trade and an even larger entry. The SQQ average of £2.16ppkppk and the overall average of 2.10ppk is very encouraging leading into the new year.
