Meatmaster Composites.Ahh I see, I thought your lambs were so valuable that you'd hung something round their necks haha
Nice looking lambs. What exactly is the breed?
They're a bit of a mixture. We started with Finn and FinnTexel Texel ewes, which were crossed to Dorper and Damara Rams (and one Wilt ram) and then interbred. Laterly we've added more Texel The ewe flock is currently 8% Wilt 15% Damara, 28% Finn, 23% Tex and 25% Dorper, but this years Lambs will be slightly heavier on the Texel bit and less Wilt, Damara and Finn. I'm off to look at Aussie White rams next week, if there is one suitable it will be mated hoggets (Meatmaster, Finn, FinnTexel and Texel) the ewe lambs will be added to the flock to see how they go.
