A fact of life on the farm....we are in the business of breeding and those that don't.. we bid FAREWELL - GOODBYE!
This week the ewes that have failed to get pregnant are off to the sale yards.
They will be sold either to another farmer or to the abattoirs for meat.
Our farm is not far from very large sale yards and this is where the ewes will be sold.
There are trucks all sorts of sizes delivering sheep and lambs. It is a very busy place.
Trucks big and little, old and new, dirty and clean!
It is an enormous place,
and there is a lot of noise, dogs barking, gates banging and stock agents working.
There will be thousands and thousands of sheep and lambs sold at the sale yards today.
Our ewes are sold $90 ...........goodbye - farewell.
