A major record has been reached at the marts after a ram sold for £20,000.
A shearling ram owned by Morley Thomson achieved the astonishing result after being made overall champion.
Shetland Flock Book described it as a “phenomenal” start to the sale.
Shetland Livestock Marketing Group said it was a “record breaking top price”.
Judges for the day were Eric and Sean Graham (all males), while Richard Spence judged the female classes.
