Assessor Comments
6 DECKS - 600 NORTH ASHROSE BLOOD BREEDERS (DELIVERED AS A RUN OUT THE GATE OF 2400) 2nd STAGE OF THE PETER HUGHES "THURLOO DOWNS" FLOCK DISPERSAL. THESE EWES REPRESENT 48 YEARS OF BREEDING; THEY HAVE GOOD BONE LENGTH DEPTH AND SPRING OF RIB. THEY WOULD SUIT MERINO OR CROSSBRED OPERATIONS AND ARE EARLY MATURING PLAIN BODIED TYPES AND WOULD BE AS GOOD FRAMED EWES AS YOU WILL FIND IN THE BOURKE DISTRICT. 2% HAVE LIGHT SCUR HORN AND 2% OF ASSESSED SAMPLE HAVE A SLIGHTLY WEAK SHOULDER - EWES HAVE VERY GOOD LENGTH. GET THE JUMP ON BREEDING EWES BEFORE THE REAL HEAT OF THE SPRING MARKET - GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO PUT A GOOD RUN OF BREEDERS TOGETHER. WATCH THIS SPACE OVER THE COMMING WEEKS FOR MORE LOTS OF THESE EWES.
