Assessor Comments
Property Sold - Flock Dispersal. Offering 1,285 Ewes over 5 Age Groups. Complete drop of Ewe lambs with a 12% tail removed. Wantagong run a medium frame flock with an average of 19 micron and 5kg wool cuts. Recently rams have been sourced from Borambil Poll Merinos. These ewe lambs present in fresh order and have not had any setbacks. They have not yet been classed and as such there is some wool types that may be undesirable. Around 5% of lambs at assessment had a small amount of dermo in the skins. There is around 10% of the draft that have a Black NLIS tag, these come out of the stud flock, but are similar in every other description. Please note that there was no Bathurst Burr detected at assessment but with recent summer rains there is burr on the property and there could be burr present on sheep. Lambs are currently under a wool WHP for Zinjet.
