Martin Oppenheimer Electronic wool selling platforms like eWool run by private company were around 20 years ago & now have Auctions plus. How was selling on Wool Q a new thing? I'm confused too!
Well bred line of unmulesed ewe lambs from Jason Gordon for sale on AuctionsPlus Jason is a long time proponent of using specific ASBVs (growth, muscle,fat & staple length)when purchasing rams. Sires of lambs are top 1% for PWT,PEMD,YFAT top 10% YSL Mark Ferguson darren gordon
Tim Leeming Isn’t using ASBVs more accurate then either of these options?
Mark Ferguson AuctionsPlus Love that saying, but not much consolation to a breeder who buys a genetic package for a reason, only to find out they contain hardly any of the genetics they were chasing.

Never been a better time to consider joining Merino ewe lambs BUT still do the sums carefully and attention to detail is critical. Some key factors to consider based on our work on commercial farms including #MoojepinMerino summarised in a few slides Murdoch University Research Meat & Livestock Australia
Tom Granleese Meat & Livestock Australia Very disappointed. I can't view more than 12 traits at any time to compare animals or even export that data, and even then it takes a lot of scrolling just to see those few traits. To search by index should be a choice not the default.
Rodney Watt JB Tancred GRASS Merinos Mark Mortimer Doug Leahcim Gordon Refshauge Sally Martin Not sure about anyone else but if I’m looking for ram tag number 268 in a list of 400 rams I find it useful if it’s sitting between 267 and 269.Much harder to find if it’s sitting somewhere in a group of 400 rams ranked on a index I don’t even use.
