Opening Sale of Sheep with Lambs at Foot

Lancaster - Monday 29th February

The opening sale of spring breeding sheep at Lancaster had an entry of 20 families forward a smaller entry then expected but

as happens at this time of year and lambing season unfortunately a couple of vendors couldn’t come. An entry consisting

mainly of aged mule ewes with young Texel lambs topped at £168 with twins and £122 with singles. Plenty of buyers in attend-

ance looking for sheep but slightly cautious and weighing up the market.

J36 - Tuesday 1st March

The opening sale of sheep with lambs at foot saw many buyers leave without making purchases, at a sale where more could have been sold. All older sheep forward today, which saw Continental ewes with twins achieve a top price of £138 with others £126. Singles achieved £125, £121 with buyers looking to purchase sheep with stronger lambs and cautious of young lambs which would struggle to turn out straight from auction.
