Really like that part but his top lambs was he going to breed them across his own flock?

That's right , and I'm hoping it was undersown

What? You mean to tell me they didn't just stand around for half an hour? You'll be telling me next, it wasn't even the same day.

Pass. Was it not carcase selection for the boxes he sells/niche contracts he has?

I remembered my tea was in the oven at that point, so left the TV quickly...

Bobby Lennox is a member of ? SBF Sire Reference Group or some successor breeding group. If anyone doubts that advantages of recording you want to see the massive increases in carcase weights and carcase quality that this group of breeders have achieved over the last ?15 years. Their achievements would put most of us to shame. @weeman will know all the details. They are both now in the Maternal Sheep Group with various like minded breeders of various breeds

So these lambs were intended for use in other breeders flocks then and not his own? Obviously can see the benefits not a common tool used within the blackie breed or am I wrong in saying probably most breeds
