J36 Crooklands Livestock Auction: Primestock Tuesday 17th October

Prime Lambs

The weekly sale of prime lambs had a better trade than was anticipated with the J36 lamb trade better than many other local Auction Markets on the day. The overall market average was 164p/kg with lambs weighing between 39-45kg selling to an average of 167p/kg. A mixed entry of lambs, once again, made it slightly hard work with under finished lambs better off being sold as stores. Heavy weight, well-finished lambs were in strong demand. A good run of Beltex lambs from JG & PH Thompson, Poppy Farm, once again, topped the market selling around the 200p/kg mark. A single Beltex lamb from KL & G Patterson, Angerton Cottages sold to a top price per head of £103. TR Prickett, Hutton Roof topped the Texel trade at £90, closely followed by Texels at £88 from LE & A Ridding, Steel Croft.

Cast Sheep

There was another good entry of ewes forward for the sale today with 640 in the market, selling to a sharper trade than the previous week for all types of sheep. Big fit ewes continue to sell well and meet plenty of demand with leaner ewes this week noticeably a few pounds dearer on the week. The market topped at £125 for Suffolks from T A Blair, Fleetwood Road South and a Charollais at £105 from M Archer & Son Ltd, Redbank Farm.
