BIDDERS came from far and wide to the Yelta, Vic, saleyards on Wednesday last week, where a massive 35,000 ewes were yarded.
Mutooroo Pastoral Company topped the sale at $175 with a pen of 576 1.5yo ewes from their Lilydale property, via Yunta.
The sale is believed to be a record for Yelta. While there were high numbers of sheep yarded in the 1970s, they were mixed sales with ewes and wethers and joint agents.
This yarding was the biggest for a sole female and Elders sale at Yelta.
Happy sellers.
