The Malleevale Contender Meat Goat Sale Catalogue 2025

Page 1


Welcome to our 5th annual Malleevale Contender meat goat on property sale and thank you for taking the time to view our 2025 catalogue.

This group of purpose built bucks have been selected from a mob of a thousand bucks which have been running together from weaning through to December, when 150 possibles and probables were selected. 40 were then selected in February for our sale.

Functionality is our selection criteria in a nutshell with kilos on the truck the goal. All our goats are paddock reared and prepared and are part of a mixed farming system including cattle and sheep and a large cropping program. They are run largely on cultivation country, usually on improved pasture, stubbles and grazing crops. Supplementary feeding is only done in drought conditions.

Muscle and fat scanning was done on the 6th of February. For the first time we have decided to include an Intramuscular Fat (IMF) score as we believe it may provide value for some breeders looking to improve meat quality. We have used a 0-5 scale to measure for IMF, with 0 being no IMF and 5 being an abundance of IMF. This score is based off this contemporary group only as there is no regulated system in place to collect IMF data. We think that this year’s group is the most even and consistent group we have offered all showing similar muscling traits which we believe will add value to any herd. Width and depth of loin and muscle through the hindquarters is a very heritable trait with this breed, with many of our clients seeing instant results in there F1 progeny. Focusing on the right traits rather than selecting for cosmetic traits such as colour will attain results quickly and add to your bottom line.

We encourage you to contact us to discuss and help with your selection’s. Not all bucks may be suitable for your operation, and we want you to select a buck that is fit for your purpose.

Inspections are welcome and encouraged.
