NW Iowa-Lyon
I decided to sell my feeder lambs instead of finishing them out. Sold 18 head weighing 80lbs average age of the lambs was 86 days. Avg daily gain .93lbs/day. I kept back 15 head of females all of the twins and triplet females for replacements. Sitting wednesday at the sale barn and watching the sale I sure hope the market turns around some for the fat lamb market by this summer.
