    Yes they need to go on truck alive, I got some out of the pines and locked them in a paddock, got too close to them and the whole lot either went through or over the fences and gone again, so the sheep yards wont hold them

    Pretty big Indian community keen on goat all around NZ too. We had a buyer in Hastings who would pay for $20 ea for young nannies. Head shot & gutted. Paid for gas to go hunting out the back of @Toby land.

    Yea sorry brads. Not sure how I managed to type in LW, I was meaning carcass wt.(at least I knew what I was on about!)
    That was when mutton was $3:10cw.

    The neighbour here musters once a year for the truck, normally gets around 200 I think
