Assessor Comments
Opportunity to purchase 497 unshorn merino wether lambs this is the lead draft of 1300 merino Lambs off Pittong Pastoral. These wethers normally retained as wool growers. However due to the ongoing poor season the decision has been made to back off numbers. These lambs will be crutched and wigged before delivery. Older brothers to these lambs were slaughtered early in the year at export weights. Please note another line of the 2nd draft of these lambs will be offered in the sale giving perspective purchases the opportunity to put together just over 1000 one mark merino wether lambs. These lambs have been getting trail grain fed for last 3 months and given their age represent an opportunity for purchasers to shear and finish as lambs into possible lucrative winter and spring markets or to retain as wool produces.
