Viewing from 3pm & Sale at 4:30pm
We will offer for sale 35 Suffolk shearlings from a flock which has been selected over the previous 25 years for ease of lambing, lamb vigour at birth and rapid growth from grass.
Born in April and raised on grass, with no creep feed, the flock is Signet recorded and most of the rams are in the top 5% of the breed for Terminal Index.
The Chevease dates from 2002 when Easycare tups were first crossed, only once, with hardy Cheviot ewes originating from 5 hefts on Balnakeil, Sutherland. This cross has, over time, resulted in a fully shedding, 5 family, self-replacing composite flock which genetically is still predominantly 50% Easycare / 50% Cheviot.
