    Hi just wondering be great to know about bringing lambs to mart .booking them in etc as hav.not been to one in over 30 years .as all sheep here are sold to a private buyer who comes and collects them and some go to factory and also collected .also buy ewes off of a dealer who brings them also .might sound handy but I don't.think I get a good price especially for store lambs

    No need to book for New Ross mart either if you’re in the south-east - just turn up.

    One piece of advice: go early and get them unloaded. No point being stuck in a queue for a half-an-hour.
