Hi Sam😊, enjoyed that, you were so right to comment on the rain, it's destroying the field's around here and winter hasn't started yet... To avoid the "You Tube" police, try saying 5H1T. . 5 H 1 T. . They can't pull you up for that 😂😂 take care
Great video. My question is at £28,000 you still only have lambs to sell which have a finite value in the market. All ewes will have a maximum number of lambs they can raise in a life time. How do you calculate that the £28,000 will equate to extra value in the lambs when sold to the meat trade? It must make sense but the extra value per lamb would need to be significant.
The £28,000 ram is to breed sons to sell to farmers lower down the breeding ladder and improve the buyers flock and reputation. 28 sons @ £1000 each and the cost is covered plus the daughters for further breeding
Excellent video again thanks for sharing great news with theTB test

@@robertbirkett6652 cheers, I was looking at the end of the chain not necessarily the breeding element.
They will probably sale straws of his semen as well it’s a big market with the rich trying to breed the best ram just like horses
@@robthomas3968Not something that happens much with sheep ,especially hill breeds
I understand that a really good tup can multiply to upwards of £49-50,000
