Entries from the Tullyvallen flock of A J Graham, Antrim topped both the male and female sections of the NI Rouge Sheep Club sale in Dungannon Farmers’ Mart last week.

The highest-priced lot was the shearling ewe Tullyvallen Venus, which sold for 3,100gns.

The top-priced gimmer was sired by Kyleen High Flier, bred by Edwin Draper from Roscrea, Co Tipperary, and was purchased by Colin Phillips from Hereford, England.

The same buyer took home the second-highest-priced lot, another gimmer from Tullyvallen which sold for 1,500gns.

In the male section, the top price was 900gns for a ram lamb bred from Tullyvallen. It was sold to Shay Kennedy from Carrick-on-Suir.
