Lamb is very tender meat. butchered under 9-10 months. I have a little over 100 ewes. price of lamb is high at under 80lbs. we sell just before Easter and last year $4.10 a lbs. doesn't matter if 80lbs or 50lbs same price per lbs.
start lambing last week of Dec. or first of Jan. best I have done is 80-90lbs lambs at 3 months old. average would be more like 60-70lbs at 3 months. If you have big suffolk ewes and feed grain to the lambs you can get them to 100+ lbs at 3 months.
I have been told after they are a year to 14 months old they start tasting like mutton. All the ones I have eaten have been under 6 months and taste better than beef. only thing is it costs alot more money.
I have done them on the BBQ, smoked a leg, roast. just about anything you can think of and it is good.
Roasts we usually did in slow cooker as they are small enough to fit in. only spice ever used was salt and pepper and sometimes a little thyme.

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
