I'm sure this has probably been posted a million times but,

Does anybody have a price list of what they charge for lamb, the cuts individually and for half a lamb or whole lamb?
Thanks

I only sell lamb as either a half or full one. I asked someone who has a stall on the local farmers market and he quoted me £7 a kilo. I work out the price on that basis then usually round it down a bit because I am selling to friends and neighbours. Hope this helps!

Depends where you are.... we farm in Wales but sell lamb in SE where we got £9 /kg last autumn for a half lamb. Also going to depend on breed and who you are selling too.

Have had a look at the eblex site for traditional butchery based on the prices for all the cuts sold seperately it would average out at around £10/kg for a half or whole butchered lamb - quite a bit more than we charge but we are not selling the individual cuts/joints.

Ok well our £80/half divides up as following- leg into 2 joints, shoulder into 2 joints, 10-14 chops, 2 neck slices, breast and offal if desired. Last year our lambs weighed in cut up at 10.5kg -13.5kg. We had 1 lamb who weighed in at 17kg per half. None of them were fat though just large framed lambs.
