Mate, I am mustering the goats in the bush to out of the bush.
your quite right though, some have had it particularly hard this year (as my bank balance reflects) and the old billy goat (and nannys) are actually bringing better money than sheep at times. last look was around the $58.oo ph on the property for 15 to 25kg animals. some of the bigger stuff is bringing better money and if you were clever and forward sold, some of the 5Kg+ are getting + $50.oo.
It seems that this year, the goat was the only animal that thrived on the dry and hard conditions.
