Sellers Read This:

  • *Sheep & Goats must be pre-booked before the auction to plan staff and penning requirements.
         *Book at least 2 weeks ahead - they get turned away after we were full and are deferred to the next auction.
         *Late bookings may be subject to a $5.00 per head extra charge.
  • *Sheep ID tags are mandatory:  no tags = take them back home
         *Order CCIA tags: Sheep Development Board, 2213C Hanselman Court, Saskatoon, SK  S7L 6A8
           or call them at 306-933-5200
  • *Delivery:
         *There are often line-ups to unload Fridays before the larger auctions.
             Come Thursday for a shorter line-up - they'll still get fed and watered,
             and let us know when you book which day you are coming.
         *No groups over 10 head are accepted Saturday mornings before the auction.
         *Nothing is accepted after 10:00 AM Saturday mornings before the auction.
         *Any animals arriving Saturday morning are subject to a $5.00 per head extra charge
         *If you come without pre-booking you may be charged and extra $5.00 per head.
  • *Sorting Ewes/Ewe Lambs as Breeding Stock:
         *We do not sell any ewes as breeding stock unless they are from a flock dispersal.
         *Ewe lambs (or yearlings) may be sold as breeding stock.
              -If you want your ewe lambs sold as breeding stock, they must be separated from your other sheep
                on the trailer or marked separate from the others when they arrive.
              -If they are not marked or separate, they will be sorted into feeder pens.
              -Note: If your ewe lambs are not of high size or quality, we caution you about trying to sell
                them as breeding stock - they may bring less money than if they were sorted into larger
                feeder pens which the buyers prefer to buy from!
  • *Rams:
         *Any rams with poor mouths, feet, testicles, or other blemishes will be sold as culls.
         *We are very critical of selling cross-bred rams as breeders
