63 sheep and 5 lambs,  2 Alpaca, 44 boxes of poultry, 6 turkeys, 33 domestic birds including small budgies, 15 guinea pigs, and 2 native pink and gray Galah’s are for sale. It is 23°C and humid.  

The numbers of farmed animals for sale was small and didn’t take long to sell and load for transport away from this market however one buyer was determined to use the incorrect ramp and make the sheep he had bought jump down approx .5 m into the trailer below. The sheep he tried to force to jump did not want to, and he was advised to move his trailer to another ramp which did not have either a gap or drop which he did. The sheep loaded effortlessly. One of the sellers of poultry mentioned that the birds can be put into bags. The manager of the yard made it clear that this is not to happen.

The DAFWA were present.
