Assessor Comments
An outstanding line of 480 April–June drop Merino whether lambs, Mulloorie blood, genuine first drafts with excellent frame, style, depth and capacity. These lambs have a proven history of performing strongly on both grass and grain, offering plenty of scope for backgrounders or finishers. Lambs are unshorn, tail stripped with pain relief and, depending on individual requirement, have received between a market and full crutch, with all pizzles cleaned up and wigs and jowls removed. Importantly, they carry a very handy wool rebate that should offset a meaningful portion of the purchase cost within a relatively short period. A quality line of well-grown Merino wether lambs combining doing ability and a valuable wool component. Please make special note of the assessor comments throughout the assessment and take careful notice of all photos. Delivery preferred on Friday the 2nd, Monday the 5th or Tuesday the 6th.
