Assessor Comments
On offer is a nice line of vendor bred Merino lambs which have been weaned a couple of months and bunk trained to grain and hay. These lambs carry decades of breeding with excellent wool quality and the genetics to grow out to large framed sheep. They would be ideal to shear, giving a quick return, and feed on. Some lambs still exhibiting horn although vendor has been predominantly on Poll genetics for approximately 8 years. A tail has been removed from the mob. The lambs range from 43 kg down to 27 kg of sample assessed averaging 32kg after 3 hrs. They carry a nice staple of bright medium wool with light burr around legs and bellies. Vendor has won numerous awards on the show circuit and this is a great opportunity to secure these lambs as they are not normally offered at this age.
