Michael Hall Livestock & Property (pictured) topped the XB Lamb price at today’s sale, selling on behalf of S&A Craig, Taralga to a top of 145ph.
The 12 Foundation Agents yarded a record number of sheep and lambs at SELX, with 24,074 sold, including over 12,000 suckers.
The market was slightly down on previous weeks, which may be a result of the huge numbers coming out of the Victorian markets.
With the warmer weather arriving across the region, dryness of skin is becoming apparent in kill lambs, with the price $5-10 cheaper this week.
Both mutton and store lambs were firm, to dearer.
