Iv had one for 4 or 5 years and still works well.

Nice to see my old thread still ticking over

Teeth will make no difference this year. Any reports from ua.

Will alot go to kill? Will they weigh them l wonder.

Nearly 90, but won't all be in solar, they have to plant trees strips etc. Still alot of things to do before it even goes to planning but they think it will be past fingers crossed.

We, ll need to see the accountant for the tax.

We're getn well down the road now, 950 an acre rent 5% of revenue per year and some storage. If it happens it will be the end of the sheep, they've got the licence front scottish power also. 37 years lease. Set my daughter up for life.

I seen some heavy weight tex tup lmbs about the markets aswell, one getn keep for shearlings but probably not good enough.

Can't blame them taking that money probably run them all summer and won't get more in September. Clipping etc etc.

Nearly everyone lv talked to over the last month has had enough. But farmers have sort memorys. But most will have less lmbs to sell l would think.

Those old ewes at lanark were the dearest sheep lv every sold 160 a piece. Still a few but have to clip them and can go in June once they improve abit. Who knows what breeders will be in September but those old girls with history are better away at these prices.

Keep the tups in there field for 10 days might help.

Second week in July this year, was up at lanark with a few odds& end ewes that aren't rearing a lmb for some reason but probably only had over 2000 hoggs maybe 800 ewes. So expect a great trade. Had a new buyer so that always helps.

Orange ones?

Must be knife you would think. Iv one aswell brilliant baler

Very little growth around here, no silage in 3 weeks for those few dairy boys more like June unless something changes fast.

Do folk that used them think they saved lmbs or not. Couldn't get them at mccaskies all sold out. Just for next year.

I had alot of deaths down to the weather a month ago alot of twins now running with one. A few with none. The gimmers have kinda saved the day. But pretty average all because of hellish weather. Only 12 gimmers left to go.

I saw they've changed them abit but there good gates.

I heard a story of someone in the Scottish borders losing 300 lmb last Wednesday /Thursday with snow n rain. If that true no one can carry on with those losses. Another man told me he's had more dead than living outside lambing in Lanarkshire. Alot less lmbs about this autumn for sure.
