119 | Selling Meat Goats at the Sale Barn: How to Get the Best Price
About this episode
This episode discusses how meat goat producers can effectively sell their goats at the sale barn to achieve the best prices.
A couple of weeks ago in Episode 117 I talked about how our market evolved away from the sale barn. Today I want to talk about why the auction can be a great place for meat goat producers to start selling their goats, and for a lot of producers it's the right long-term market. Today I want to talk about how to use the sale barn well, the research, the timing, the relationship building, what to do when you pull in, and what I learned over several years selling this way. Let's get to it. Episode Mentions: 117 | Selling Meat Goats: From Sale Barn Auctions to a Waitlist11 | Should I Tag My Goats?
