I went - some really dodgy looking stuff (as usual) but some lovelies in amongst too. Even some of the lovey healthy stuff was mislabelled tho - you've really got to have your eyes open to go to an auction, don't you? Prices were generally poor I think. 3 Partridge wyandotte pullets  = £20, 4 warrens = £18.
A place to pick up a bargain if you know what you're looking for but not to sell, springtime will be better for that I hope. ;)
