[QUOTE="Calum the Shepherd, post: 1802058, member: 40096"] I face this battle with people alot. We farm 4000 ewes and buy a few tups each year, this farm is purely commercial. The supplier is told what we want in certain traits and they must be incorporated with good conformation and constitution. If they turned up with a sheep that resembled a blue barrel and tractor weights for a head he'd be sent back swiftly as would he if his figures/traits didn't meet criteria. I like to make decisions on fact as opposed to fiction. We trialled 200 ewes a piece one lot to recorder tups and other to non recorded. I'll let you work out which lambs finished better in same circumstances. [/QUOTE]
