Assessor Comments
Good line of vendor bred April May 2023 drop merino ewes October shorn msld and ojd vacc. Given the right feed and management these ewes would be ideal to join in late Feb\March for a spring lamb or to tuck away and join in the spring, previous purchases have been happy with these ewes. will be reserved at fat value.
