Lambs looked heavier. Are they weighed entering the mart or entering the ring? Seen grass lambs lose up to 5/6 kg when weighed early morning compared to late evening

Weighted entering the ring so there is a bit of a wait.

Re the rats if you put up one or two nesting boxes in view of the river and yard then owls will nest there and solve any rodent issues. Nothing catches them like owls and all done at night. Clean out the boxes every year.

Interesting video of taking the Sheep to market. I guess they really scared to enter those stock trailers being a small contained space. Seems like you get a real workout just loading the sheep in your trailer.

@@sheepshepherd we sure have different markets. For me selling a sheep at auction would be taking a massive hit compared to wrapped and frozen or a private sale. I’m in dairy cattle country. Not much of a sheep trade, but there’s loads of ready to eat lamb customers. Sheep have a bad reputation.
