Ewe numbers continued to climb at Feilding on Monday with 8700 yarded. Prices eased, but that was expected and vendors were still happy with returns. 
Reading Time: < 1 minute

Heavy to very heavy ewes still managed $134-$152, though a larger number were medium-good lines at $120-$131. Light and medium lines returned $88-$119 and light ewes, $64-$86.

Lamb numbers also nearly doubled as local areas dry out and this market also softened, though by a lesser degree to the ewes. The tops made $138-$170, medium $119-$134, and small store types $55-$113.

The cattle pens were much quieter in comparison, with the sale over in short time. Cows featured but Friesian, 475-520kg, eased to $2.04/kg, and Angus-Friesian mainly traded at $1.86-$1.94/kg.

The balance of the yarding were mostly single lines, though four Devon cows, 715kg, sold well at $2.39/kg.
