Assessor Comments
Presenting a rare opportunity to the market. These young ewes are from the future of one the districts most renowned flocks and brings decades of top quality fine wool genetics. Presenting in forward store condition after coming through a tough winter and wet spring. The McCormack flock has been heavily classed with only 50% of ewes being retained in the merino operation. An emphasis on fertility is seen with all scanned empty or lambed and lost ewes being culled. These future breeders show all the potential to grow into large framed, heavy cutting fine wool breeders this flock has been known for. There is 268 in total with a 10% tail removed and to be offered in two identical lots of 134 head. Realistically reserved at $180.00.
