Author Topic: Lambs or Hoggs wanted, Aberdeenshire. (Read 3009 times)

We had a lucky lambing this year with four ewe lambs from our black welsh mountain sheep. Our flock is getting bigger but it has left me with a problem, as I don’t have any lambs obviously marked for my freezer.

Does anybody have a couple of lambs or hoggs for sale that I can fatten over the summer? Any breed or cross, chopped or entire would be good as long as they are not fence jumpers, commercial type would be a bonus.

I’m located Methlick, Aberdeenshire

We have some Soay here if that's of interest to you, will be ready for processing in the autumn.

We had loads of boys this year so will have spare. They are Gotland x Shetland so mid sized.

Hi, We have a number of Suffolk x Wiltshire Horn Lambs available. First time we have done this cross and they would appear to be a great shaped carcass. Very pleased with them.

Cheers Fishy

We have both this years and last years lambs available, a choice of Hebrideans or Balwen Welsh Mountains.
Both slower growing, so excellent flavour. Drop me a PM if you are interested.
