    Anyone see any nice quality Hoggets sold yet this year..? ..I have a feeling they will be relatively dear...just a 'hunch' mind....saw some nice brocket ewe lambs make over 110 in Dowra last Sat and they were less than 35kg....
    Generally if ewe lamb trade is good it leaves Hoggets dear too.

    I see 1 of our pedigree breeders on here has made a nice purchase this morning.

    Tullow and the breeder sales in general don't give any resemblance of the real trade. The few big prices for the camera are in house jobs and only 3 or 4 lots.. Had v good suffolk hoggets in Carnew yesterday and struggled to get 180. Had bring more home. Just no buyers there.
