New Sires for this year.                                                        Updated: 14/06/2010

In 2010, I shall be trying 2 new ram lambs in the Lowerye flock. The first is Lowerye Krikey (ZVY0078). He is son of Rockvilla Golden Promise (VV6049) from ZVY5057, an huge Eric daughter that is also the dam of  L.I's a Good 'Un (ZVY8057). Krikey scanned with an eye muscle of almost 39.7mm and CT scanning measured his well developed gigot as the highest scoring Charollais to date with at 8.30! He is the second highest index lamb in 2010 at 512.

    Krikey carries 2 copies of the MyoMAX gene.

The other lamb that I shall be using this year, was the second highest gigot shape lamb in the flock in 2010, at +8.07. Lowerye Kinell (ZVY0084) is sired by Inglis Chalky(CN2048) out of an incredibly milky dam by L.Ernie (ZVY4046). Kinell is one of the widest lambs that I have ever bred at Lowerye, with an extremely full gigot. 

   Kinell carries 2 copies of the MyoMAX gene.
