Assessor Comments
Offering 620 good quality Merino Ewes. These ewes averaged 53.8kg live at assessment after a 6hr curfew. The ewes are all vendor bred 2021 drop and are from a large-scale western QLD flock with Wanganella bloodline inclusion. The ewes are carrying 45 to 55mm of wool and are mulesed. These ewes were scanned empty back in February after a tough spring joining but are classed in genuine breeders that have just fallen out of this joining. This line of vendor bred ewes give the opportunity for the purchaser to put together a productive line of ewes that can be shorn and joined for a quick return. Please note at assessment there were some ewes showing light scale on the ears and also noted were some ewes showing light ewe horn.
