Assessor Comments
Well bred line of March/April drop wethers with a lot of potential, these wethers are normally retained and sold into the heavy mutton trade. Majority of these wethers are plain body and easy care type sheep that are carrying a very good quality fleece. Approx 20% poll, 80% horned. (normal wether horn that has been dehorned, very small % of heavier horn). Hard to find these lines of one age wethers. Note this is one of three lots being a run out the gate. 3x 6 deck lots so there maybe a small variation in the assessment to delivery, all endeavors will be made to keep all lots as even as possible. These wethers had a lot of yard time and drafting out of other sheep prior to assessing in some pretty hot conditions, there will be a considerable weight gain to be made if given the right opportunity. Wool cut and micron are the flock average.
