• THERE was a patchy trade for Scottish Blackface rams when 463 were offered in a "live" sale at Perth this week. United Auctions said the 21-day movement restrictions were responsible for buyers hesitancy. Top call was £500 for a shearling from Kettelshiel Partnership selling to T Elliott, Galashiels. Other leading bids saw shearlings twice change hands at £450.
