Assessor Comments
'PM Brown' Dispersal Sale. A nice line of 275 Merino mixed age breeding ewes depastured to Moyston Hills white suffolk rams from 1st Jan for 6 weeks. Ewes are principally Green, Purple & Yellow tags (2019-2021) with a small % older & present forward store to forward condition and weighed 58.5kg (o/night curfew) @ assessment with a 10% tail removed. A good trading proposition here in this very positive market for lambs and mutton. Mulsed & tail stripped, drenched, vaccinated (5 in 1 & Gudair) the Wangerrip sheep are renowned good doing sheep and will grow fine to medium wool and fill bales.
