BREEDING SHEEP - MONDAY 9TH APRIL 2018

A large show of Store & Breeding Sheep forward for sale and quality outfits in high demand, especially younger ewes with strong lambs at foot. The 226 outfits of sheep with lambs topped at £230 for Texel Shearlings and Twins from Alan Midgley, Luddendenfoot, the same vendor with two further pens at £220. Peter Simpson of Dacre had a nice run of Texel Ewes with twins, topping at £228 and £225, with Andrew Throup of Silsden selling Texel Ewes and Twins to £225.

 

 

 

Older ewes were decent to sell if they had older lambs at foot with purchasers discounting outfits with very young lambs. A useful entry of Store Hoggs found favour and sold away very well.
