Rams
I regard my strength as a ram breeder to be breeding structurally sound, high genetic merit rams.
To achieve this objective we use all available technology; Sheep Improvement Ltd, Animate, Eye muscle scanning, Viascan information, Electronic ID.
Both our Maternal and Terminal sires are bred for traits that will maximise farm profitability.
Terminal:
- High growth rate
- High meat yield
- Survival
Maternal:
- High number of lambs weaned
- Excellent mothering traits
- Survival
- High growth rate
- High meat yield
- Tolerance to disease
- Wool
All rams sold are in top 25% of their weaned group and are structurally sound.
All rams presented on sale day I would be happy to use myself.
