Assessor Comments
330 Merino Ewe Lambs. april/May 2025 drop. Ave 43 kg. Off shears. Vendor bred. 8 month old ewe lambs on the market early due to seasonal conditions , would normally be sold in July/August. Merritop ewes are large framed ,plain bodied ewes with free growing staple length.. The Merritop flock has won the Peppin Shaw ewe competiton on 5 occasions so certainly buying quality. These ewe lambs are well grown for age in strong store condition and will now bounce off shears. These ewe lambs dont present in their Sunday best due to being assessed day after shearing but this provides an excellent oppurtunity to buy some of the districts best underdone. Would recomend feedlotters look at these with the potential to grow out and reoffer in the spring. Please note you will be buying lambs with some minor shearing cuts , lambs dipped in Hibitane dissanfectant off shears., bad cuts will be removed. Please truck asap after sale as ewes in holding paddock. Please ring with any questions.
