Those are all show sheep for 4h and jackpot shows . Hamps and cross . He has some really good genetics and flushes embryos out of a couple. He puts in a lot of time and money to be able to compete in the show industry. Check out the link to his sell https://sconlinesales.com/Bids/AuctionsListing/29354

I'm not sure there is a group looser with money than "show people". I would just shake my head when my dad would say what people(probably him) were buying/selling show lambs for....but, he loved it. He burnt me out on it as a kid traveling all over. My sister won the Missouri State Fair a few years back which was a cool highlight. Now all the kids are gone, and so are the sheep. It is crazy the amount of $$$ that is involved, but you can't take it with ya so might as well have fun with it I guess.

Neighbor took 15, 88-90# lambs to the Wellington Colorado auction 2 weeks ago. $320 each. Plain ole Polypays. Muslims take 90% of them around here
