Hello All ,
I have a small flock of (mostly) Hampshire downs couple of Southdown hampshire crosses .13 all together with a total of 21 lambs, 10 rams and 11 ewe lambs .8 of the ram lambs are castrated with two which were born some time after the rest of the lambs entire .I was going to send most of the mature ewes as caste ewes this year keeping all my ewe lambs and two of the younger mature ones .The lambs are now from 9 weeks old or a little younger (except for the 2 younger rams) .Due to an injury I am considering giving up my livestock .These lambs are very quick growing and meaty and will not be long before they are ready for the butcher and with cast ewes bringing good money at the sales .I am looking for an offer so that I don't have to make multiple trips to market etc .I also have lots of ancillary equipment such as hurdles x 15, fence energisers one brand new ,meds vaccinators etc etc even a brand new Ifor Williams trailer which is the largest of the single axel trailers P8G with 5 foot headroom cost me nealy £3000 with all the extras such as dividing gates etc .I also have two Hereford cross beef steers which should be ready for market at the back end of this year.If you are interested in an ideal starter flock or anything else please e-mail in first instance..........

Thanks all
