00:11polmerino use, generally with the merino rams here on offer, ranging from the 23 to 21 drops
00:17and those use have made extreme demand with one sole purchaser here today to secure that 4,700.
00:25Those use there have gone to northern New South Wales into their Queensland operation
00:29overall in the market sense today.
00:32Store lambs and your feeder lambs met strong demand, minimal heavier feeder lambs on offer
00:37with your lighter lambs meeting strong demand to go to the paddock as wool growers
00:41and then any other breeding sheep on offer today with weight, two processors going at it
00:47and that job was much stronger than it has been as well which is very much reflective on the current market
