Assessor Comments
850 Southdown X feeder lambs, out of medium/large frame composite ewes. All lambs were weaned on December 1st & have continued to go ahead on high quality feed. At weaning they were drenched with Virbac Duocare & received their second 6 in 1 vaccination. They were also treated with Clik Extra on November 4th to keep flies away. Lambs all present in excellent condition & are an ideal article to take on for the autumn & winter trade markets. They come with my highest recommendation!! Please note** Vendor also has the second draft of the lambs (585hd) in this sale.
