Assessor Comments
This is a draft of 450 Aug/Sept 2020 drop vendor bred merino ewes. These sheep are renowned woolgrowers that rarely hit the open market. The vendor is an astute stockman, and has true passion for producing livestock that cut large quantities of wool whilst retaining reproductive performance. These ewes are ideal to purchase to continue a merino/wool operation, or join to use in any crossbred operation. The flock average across approximately 15,000 sheep this year was 6kgs and 18.5 microns. Please note: the vendor has 710 1 year old ewes offered in today’s sale.
