Assessor Comments
650 Merino whether lambs , the pick of 800. April/May 2026 drop. Caroonboon & more recently Bluebush bloodlines used. Lambs ave 44kg , 160 weighed. Lambs in the process of being weaned. Going onto excellent feed so should maintain bodyweight. Lambs to be loaded on the 15th or 16th Sept. These lambs are exceptional, well grown, plain bodied with great staple length for age. The Merritop flock has won the Peppin Shaw ewe competition 5 times so definitely some of the Western Riverina's best. Please ring with any questions.
