Management Practices

All stock are subjected to a complete vaccination program, annual dipping and a stringent drenching program which means that clients can have peace of mind.Good fencing on the property ensures that the stock learn to respect fences.

Extensive performance recording, both visual and objective, quickly identifies strengths and weaknesses in the breeding program.

The stud is prepared to cull sheep with undesirable physical characteristics, irrespective of their Lambplan performance figures.
