Our Genetics

FE Tolerance & Worm Resilience

Facial Eczema challenges are increasing, so security is important. We have invested heavily in both Facial Eczema tolerance and WormFEC progress, placing our flock in a strong position for the future. With drench resistance increasing nationwide, genetics that reduce reliance on drenches are becoming essential. 

Our FE tolerance levels provide genuine security, and our WormFEC progress positions us well for the challenges ahead.

Efficient Maternal Ewes -
The Foundation of Profit

Our breeding programme focuses on ewes that are:

This results in more lambs on the ground, better lamb survival, and more meat per hectare.

High Reproduction & Survival

Our flock consistently delivers:

  • High scanning percentages

  • Strong lamb survival

  • High birth-to-weaning performance

  • These traits compound into greater whole-farm productivity, not just individual animal performance

Constitution First — Built to Handle Pressure

We place a strong emphasis on constitution, ensuring our sheep:

  • Maintain condition under pressure

  • Maintain good structure throughout lifetime

  • Perform in harsh or variable environments

  • Continue producing when feed is tight

  • Deliver reliable results year after year

Above are genetic gain graphs, which pit our flock against industry average for these traits
