OPA and MV will kill the mule breed in the next 5 years (just my opinion), Iv seen masses amounts of cull mules in the last couple of years that are just wasting away.Are the mule breeders making any progress with bringing OPA (wheelbarrow disease) under control? Getting to be quite a problem here with a lot of people testing now.
The breeders should stop chasing silly head colour and trimming and concentrate on MV and OPA testing to give buyers high health sheep. The sellers of mules need the buyers and in my opinion some they are forgetting the ewes are entering big breeding flock and could bankrupt them (I do have experience).
