INTERFACED LIVE WITH AUCTIONSPLUS
INSPECTION AVAILABLE FROM 10.00AM SALE DAY
We are happy to be offering an excellent line up of our Poll Dorset and Border Leicester rams at our fifth February on property sale at Ashfield, Walcha. With another dry finish to the year, it’s nice to see some rain around the district. The markets and forward contracts have started the year strongly, which is a great turn around.
We are offering 40 Border Leicester Rams. The majority of these rams have been used in our 1st XB operation, producing offspring of arguably our best quality to date. We have maintained a core goal of high EMD and Fat quality while maintaining a true Border Leicester type.
Our Poll Dorsets continue to be competitive front runners, with many in this catalogue in the top 5% and 10% of the breed for various traits. We’re striving to produce a lamb that finishes early (WWT), with a good fat cover and plenty of muscle, while also being structurally sound.
We offer our thanks to the Elders Walcha team, Megan Scrivener for her cataloguing prowess, our and to all of our return buyers who have supported us with ram sales over the last fifteen years. Our intention is to continue to produce fantastic sheep for the commercial and stud markets, both locally and interstate.

An ASBV is an estimate of the genetic potential a sheep has to pass on to its progeny. ASBV’s are available for a range of economical important traits and are designed to be used in conjunction with visual selection. The appearance and performance of an animal is a combination of its genes and the environment in which it is raised (e.g. the amount and quality of feed, single or twin or twin birth type.) ASBV’s account for these environmental effects, allowing the comparison of sheep based on the genes they will pass on to their progeny. It is important to remember when selecting sheep you are choosing the genes, not the environment.
Reference – Lambplan ASBV’s www.sheepgenetics.org.au
BIRTH WEIGHT (BWT)
Rams with more negative BWT ASBVs produce lambs which are lighter at birth (kg). (BWT ASBV’s estimate the genetic difference between animals in live weight at birth). Use low or negative BWT for maiden ewes.
WEANING WEIGHT (WWT)
Estimates the genetic difference between live weights at 100 days. Rams with a more positive ASBV for weaning weight (WWT) will, on average, produce lambs with faster growth to weaning (kg).
WEIGHT (PWWT)
Post weaning weight estimates the genetic difference between animals (kg). The higher the ASBV figure the better for superior later growth of lambs.
ADULT WEANING WEIGHT (AWT)
Adult weaning weight at two years (kg).
FAT (PFAT)
Post weaning fat depth at approx. 225 days (mm). Rams with a more negative ASBV for post weaning fat (PFAT) will produce progeny that are leaner.
EYE MUSCLE DEPTH (PEMD)
Post weaning eye muscle depth at approximately 225 days. Rams with more positive ASBV’s for EMD will produce progeny that have more muscle and yield more lean meat (mm).
Post weaning scrotal circumference (mm) Rams with larger testes will sire more daughters and wean a higher percentage of lambs.
NUMBER OF LAMBS WEANED (NLW)
Number of lambs weaned (%) Rams with more positive NLW ASBV’s will produce daughters that wean a higher percentage of lambs.
YNLW
Number of lambs weaned % for a one year old ewe.
Worm egg count (%) – Rams with more negative WEC ASBVs produce progeny who have a higher genetic potential to resist worm burdens. Lower WEC ASBVs are desirable.
Maternal weaning weight (kg) – Rams with more positive MWWT ASBV’s will produce daughters that wean heavier lambs.
ASBVs have been generated from the 15 December 2024 run.
For each lot we have provided ASBV figures along with Accuracy. Figures in the Top 5% have been highlighted in red and in the Top 10% green. Please refer to page 6 of this catalogue for an explanation of Traits.
