Assessor Comments
This is a quality draft of 230 Sept/Oct 2021 drop vendor bred merino ewes. These sheep are renowned woolgrowers that rarely hit the open market. The vendor is an astute stockman, and has true passion for producing livestock that cut large quantities of wool. These ewes are ideal to purchase to continue a merino/wool operation, or join to use in any crossbred operation. The flock average across approximately 15,000 sheep this year was 6kgs and 18.5 microns.
