G'day folks, the lamb is an updated photo,Persian over B.H.Dorper,the P's sure have strong genes with "speckling" on the first x.

Next is the first part of the next stage of the yard up-grade. The front piece is a handler for drenching and if needed foot trimming,it also has digital scales for weighting and it will be connected to the shed entrance on the left hand side.I think the scales (which i picked up ages ago at a farm clearance sale) will be handy to work out what the "carcass" was in $'s per kg ,To date all of our lambs have made in excess of $10.00 per kg,"swing weight"...T.O.R.

The right equipment sure can make a difference on working the sheep. So much easier! I like the Persian influence on your lambs.

How many different breeds do you have now? I think you are going to come up with a composite breed that is very well suited to your climate and location.
