    Lads, have a good few ewe lambs that I put with the Ram last year that didn't go in lamb. I assume ye don't cull these? What about empty 2 year olds ie ones that only went with the ram first time in their second autumn?

    Id kill 2 year olds. Id probably keep the yearlings but with tje good prices you could kill the worst of them and buy replacemnts in autumn

    Sell them all ...you won't get better prices than present... I got 156 for dry hoggets during the week..I won't get that in the back end...as a friend of mine said during the week..a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush...plus there is obviously a fault there
