Tuesday 22 September 2020

United Auctions (Tuesday 22 September 2020) sold 3835 Breeding Sheep.

1372 Ewe Lambs averaged £70.50 (+£21.34), 833 Gimmers averaged £113.11 (+£26.38), and 1630 Ewes averaged £75.90 (+ £22.14). 
Sellers enjoyed a buoyant trade at Oban’s Annual Sale of Breeding Ewes, Gimmers & Ewe Lambs when averages rose considerably in all sections.  Despite the buoyant trade prevailing, buying customers were selective with their purchases for all classes and only the best bred types dominated the trade.  United Auctions wish to express their gratitude to the customers who diverted their Cross Bred Sheep to Oban Livestock Centre in order that both Dalmally & Oban Centres served their customers to full advantage under the present COVID19 restrictions.
