The old season store lamb market is winding down and due to a small bench of buyers prices eased $5-$10. The top lines made $130-$140 and medium, $110-$135.

A good line of Romney ram hoggets again realised $191, with heavy prime lambs starting at $170. Second cuts made steady returns at $165-$170, while lighter lines firmed $5 to $155-$160. A few more ewes were easily absorbed and heavy types firmed to $165-$186, with medium earning $140-$160 and light, $120-$140. Tail-end ewes sold for $50-$60.
