Assessor Comments
A very good line of commercial merino ewes, These ewes are in excellent condition considering they have been running on dry improved pastures and stubbles over summer. Being a good medium to large frame, cutting good wool and bred locally. Ewes have always been joined to a terminal sire with successful percentages weaned. They have joined to high quality Gooramma Poll Dorsets, that were selected for lambing ease and high growth rates & IMF. Ewes are culled yearly so effectively they are the last of the vendors merino flock. All dries have been removed. 158 Twin Ewes & 95 Single Ewes (marked) are running together. To Lamb Early JUNE Sale due to change in operations, NOTE Crossbred ewes in same sale.
