Most lambs are marketed between the ages of 6 and 8 months. By this age, they have reached their full growth potential and are ready for slaughter. However, some lambs may be marketed as early as 4 months of age if they are large enough to yield a good carcass. Similarly, lambs that are not quite ready for slaughter may be kept longer in order to reach the desired market weight. Ultimately, the decision of when to market a lamb depends on factors such as breed, growth potential, and market conditions.   Marketing lambs at the right time is crucial for getting the best price possible. By understanding these factors, you can ensure that your lambs are ready for market when buyers are looking for them.
