Don't know about Australian lamb imports.  Only thing I have seen
arounbd here is either domestic or New Zealand import.

Cheers

domestic lamb?... domestic lamb?.. domestic lamb?

The US has only boutique farming of lamb, it's always raised as an
objection
against Australian lamb imports.

Australian farmers who have visited swear blind that every one of your
sheep
has a personal name [an OZ in joke for people who don't run 50,000+
sheep]

Before the bottom fell out of wool pricing we had an estimated 10 sheep
for
every man, woman and child in OZ.

BTW - Sheep are the stupidest animals I've ever had the misfortune to
work
with. Heh! heh! I eat lamb brains, what does that tell you?
