AN EXCITING LINE UP OF NEW GENERATION SEMEN SIRES.
These rams are the product of intense selection pressure in the sub-tropical heat and humidity of Northern Australia with its monsoonal rains and low quality pasture. These environmentally challenging conditions are undoubtedly the toughest for sheep anywhere in Australia.
As a result, we have bred Poll Merino sires with exceptional fitness genes to survive, thrive and reproduce and grow permanently white wool of high density and length on plain bodies.
It is certain that outlier genes for thermoregulation, feed conversion and natural resistance to fly strike of all forms are present in the Well Gully flock. These unique genetic attributes can boost the overall performance and profitability of Merino sheep in flocks throughout Australia. Key benefits such as no mulesing, no fleece rot, no dags, far less hand feeding have been reported back from our Southern clients in NSW, Victoria, Tasmania, South Australia, Kangaroo Island and Western Australia.
