I am not sure about all your terms, but here in PA, USA, the lamb prices were great as of 6 months ago. We were getting close to $200/ head for a 6 month lamb (approx 100 lbs). I now get the same amount for auction culls as I can get for top breeding stock--it's odd.
Very ironic. After I left my post above I just got the following notice. Apparently I sold my last lambs before the crash that has happened. I was not aware of this.
I just picked up an unproven unregistered 6 months old Ram for 100 $.
The breed one year old ewes I bought last year were 200 $ each.
A guy had a registered two year old dorper ram, three ewes, and one lamb for 500$. Sale barn prices float between 90 $ and 110 $ for 6-7 month olds.

Hand-spinning fleeces command a fantastic price still, even in a sluggish economy. I sold my purebred Corries fleece for up to $21/lb (about $150-$220 per fleece) in 2012.
