Sheep market climbing a little.

Uncle got a call from the buyer today wanting to know if we had any >60# lambs. Paying $2.45/lb  and $2.40 lb for >#60 lbers.
Maybe the price has been back up for awhile as I don't check prices until I have some to go? Neither uncle or I had any; dad had ½ trailer load for him; so they are separated, tagged, and ready for the buyer to pick up in the morning. I have never had him pick them up before and have always taken them to him (@100 mile round trip), so the "deal" is even better than normal.

Best prices I've seen in about 4 years.
Maybe demand will be even better come Easter time when mine will be ready.
