Dumfries Primestock Report
C&D Auction Marts held their weekly sale of Store Lambs and Prime Sheep in Dumfries on Wednesday 15th October 2025.
Store Lambs met a competitive trade selling to £120 for Cheviot Mules from Greenshields, South Mains. Another good show of Prime Lambs. Export weighted lambs were scarce and very much wanted by the buyers. Cast Ewes and Rams met a strong demand.
