Are we all going out the one gap at the one time? It is the same with calves. Many calves are born in the first three months of the year. The factories know damn well they are going to have a glut when the calves reach 30 months in September. Is the same thing happening with sheep? I understand the farmer cannot go all year around or anything, but a lot of lambs are coming at the one time-----
