Assessor Comments
680 - Neat B Double of well bred & well grown Kyanga White Sfk & Shellal sired feeder lambs that ave. 38kg and present in strong store condition. The Thermopylae Breeding flock has transitioned from a pure Corriedale flock (always focusing on carcass traits) to a self replacing composite flock sourcing some of western Vics best composite genetics for their foundation flock. Approx 80% lambs in this line are 2nd X. Normally finished to slaughter weights these lambs are offered to the market 'feedlot ready' with lambs on 300g / d Barley & Lupins, wheat straw w salt & lime. These lambs are mature, well grown lambs with a head start on feed and well on the way, ideal to top up to with on feed.
