Wool
With shearing conducted annually, in early September, we see our ewes cut an average of 7kg of 18.5µ wool.
Lambs are shorn at 6 months of age and consistently cut 3.5kg of 17.5µ wool whilst still maintaining an average 220g per day of live weight growth.
Ewes
Flock health is our main focus here at Milroy Merinos. Year-round ewe health is the backbone of a successful breeding program.
Through the guidance of our nutritionist, extensive mixed species pasture improvement program, regular worm testing and permanent access to dry lick, we are guaranteeing the consistent health of the flock through every season.
Joining in early November for an autumn lambing allows us to ensure our lambs to grow to their full potential with consistent access to high protein pastures from an early age.
Lambs
Breeding a dual purpose animal is a key target here on farm and our lambs is where this trait shines through year on year.
Consistently averaging 30kg weaning weight at 120 days and maintaining 220g per day growth, whilst growing a good skin, ensures these animals provide a healthy margin in multiple markets.
