Assessor Comments
95 - June/July drop Merino Wether lambs that averaged 38.9kg at assessment. Lambs are Willandra/Pendarra blood, December shorn and mulesed. Lambs have had access to summer crop early in the year and more recently supplemented Barley resulting in a nice weight for age lamb that will continue to grow out given the chance. These lambs would be ideal to finish off for the winter kill markets or held for future wool growers, typically growing out to big, solid bodied wethers around the 18 micron range. Please note, vendors father is also offering a line of the same blood merino wether lambs (slightly lighter) allowing for the chance to put together 200 lambs.
