Assessor Comments
This is a line of 260 Suffolk Merino/Southdown Merino X mixed sex store lambs averaging 32kgs liveweight at assessment. The lambs are light in condition, but have good potential as you can compare with the vendors other lot in todays auction. These lambs have been weaned, shorn and trained to beans via lick feeder. The lambs received a tri combo drench last week, and were shorn last month. They have access to adlib bean feeders, and are developing well with the supplement. They are a nice line of mostly black faced store lambs that are ideal to turn out and fatten for the trade or export markets. The vendor purchases top Barrama blood ewes annually from one property, and sources rams with high growth rates and EMA data from renowned Suffolk studs LSK & Croydon, and Southdowns from Athlone Stud.
