It was a good day in the prime section where both ewes and lambs lifted around $2/hd. Heavy lambs were at $135-$145, while mediums and lighter lines made $120-$125 and $100-$110 respectively. Top ewes in the $140-$150 bracket, easing down to $125-$135 for the mediums and $110-$120 for the lesser types.
The store section was depressed in comparison. Dry conditions through the region meant few are willing to commit to lambs over an extended time period. The better end only managed $70-$76, falling to $50-$60 for mediums and $30-$40 for the tail-enders.
