Assessor Comments
A tidy line of young ewes to suit those transitioning to Multi Purpose Merino's or for the terminal breeder. Plain bodied, healthy 2 and a half (66 hd) and 1 and a half (77 hd) year old ewes that were scanned undetectable on 23rd March. The majority of these ewes are in forward store condition with the younger portion mainly in more store condition. Averaging 58 kg at assessment after 1 hr in yards. The dry hot summer would not have helped a joining program which probably accounts for the NDP result. Ideal young ewes to put on feed and join to your ram of choice. Please note delivery times. Vendors not there over Easter period. Can load prior if suitable.
