Non-Traditional markets refer to lambs destined for slaughter outside of what would be termed as traditional markets. The reported market below is considered non-traditional. *** Slaughter Sheep: Slaughter sheep not tested last week so no trend available this week. Light supplies of lambs weighing under 70 lbs spurred good demand for those lambs. Demand was moderate for all other classes. Supply consisted of 86 percent Slaughter Lambs, 12 percent Slaughter Ewes, and 2 percent Slaughter Bucks. All sheep are sold by the hundred weight.
