Assessor Comments
On offer is a run of 235 Merino Ewes with 257 White Suffolk X lambs at foot. All the hard work has been done here, the ewes are mulesed, August shorn and the lambs were marked on the 1/9/23 and all their health treatments are up to date. The majority of the lambs are fresh and going forward. The ewes are in store condition and are really giving it all to their lambs. The ewes are Kiren Poll Blood and the lambs are by Coronga White Suffolk rams. This is a great opportunity to purchase a low investment line of ewes and lambs that would suit a trade or to keep the younger ewes as breeders. Buyers please note I observed that a percentage of the ewes have long toes, a small percentage have udder defects and there is the odd ewe with a vaccination lump on their neck. Also note approximately 10% of the lambs are a bit poddy, the balance are fresh and forward. Also note approximately 25 ewes are not vendor bred, originally purchased ex WA a few years ago.
