[blackbelly] Lousy Waco Prices

[steve solcich]

We visited Waco, TX to once again to check-out the regular Friday morning 
sheep and goat market.
Actually, this time there was some sheep there--recently/usually only goats. 
 Persons are still offing old horned hair rams, and very nice painted and 
blackbelly ewes.  For the $50 asking,  I'm not sure all even  captured this 
price.  We again left  disgusted!    Last time TX barbados were selling for 
10$ each, so I guess this past Friday is a price improvement here in beef 
country!

We do not care for goats or cows, and never have had any.
Goats, goats and more goats are what the former TX barbado ranchers have.
A few are still ridding themselves of all hair sheep.

Houston is our best ethnic market to sell occasionally on a one-on-one 
basis.
But not much money in this endeavor even after gaining a few consumers..
So being European and eating lamb since we could hold a fork, we will 
continue to frequently eat ours
(2 will be Thanksgiving, 2+ December and Christmas), and the heck with any 
lamb market anywhere.
