Assessor Comments
A neat line of lambs that will respond well to feed. Many lambs are remarkably fresh overall which is a credit to the vendors. They have been nurtured through impossibly difficult conditions and are eating barley and pellets. They have the breeding to grow out to trade or export lamb. They are tagged suitably if you want to draft the ewe portion. These lambs were weaned at assessment and are now in confinement on Milne Feeds LambGro pellets, Barley & Almond hull. They are well handled and calm. Buy with confidence.
