Assessor Comments
On offer, Acc// Nicholls Farming is 460 2nd cross store lambs averaging 34kg empty. These lambs are a late drop and very well bred and even though a tad light at present history proves that these lambs, whether on grain or crop will hit trade weights and given maximum time and opportunity can hit export weights. These lambs are all frame and majority score 1's meaning compensatory weight gain will be quick. When assessed lambs were sprightly and healthy with a small tail removed. Every lamb was individually weighed at 28kg curfewed for buyer confidence and present as a very even line. in the past 2 weeks lambs have been introduced to grain feeders as well as being trail fed barley so induction into feedlots should be effective.
