Was waiting for someone smarter than you and me to reply. But no one is stepping up.

So here is my opinion: stimulus money and nontraditional holidays coincided to make a perfect storm earlier this year. Those prices could never last forever. Then Lack of rain out west resulted in marketing more older ewes and keeping back fewer ewe lambs, boosting the numbers of lambs and ewes to headed to market.

Prices are still very good and will improve into the holiday season. Then next spring prices will be strong again.

Huge cultural bias against sheep farming out west and the barber pole worm in the East and coyotes everywhere create limited competition. And those factors won’t change in a generation, much less in a year or two.
