Wiltipoll shedding sheep for sale
Moffitts Farm may have approximately five Sheep Genetics Australia Lambplan Maternal Carcase Production indexed August 2026 drop Wiltipoll ram weaners and possibly some August 2026 ewe weaners for sale in January 2027. Approximately 20 August 2026 drop ewe weaners have already been ordered.
Our sale rams are all in the top 10% of each year’s lamb drop based on their Lambplan indicies. All rams weaners are retained until we can assess them as 1 score shedders, in other words 100% of their lamb birth coats have been shed by five to six months of age.
We will take an order for August 2026 drop rams for collection in January/February 2027. Only five rams will be retained for sale from the 2026 drop.
Wiltipoll bloodlines used in the Moffitts Farm flock have been sourced from Gee Tee (Greg Toll Gunbower Vic), Muskdale (Ray Newman Axedale Vic), and Kars (Annie Hughes, Strathalbyn, South Australia). Exact percentage of each bloodline is available.
Ram price is $500 plus GST, and ewe weaner price is $300 plus GST
Every animal in the Moffitts Farm flock is performance recorded with full pedigree, growth rate based on actual live weight recorded at birth, lamb marking, lamb weaning and at multiple post weaning weighings. All ewes have full reproduction records and maternal behaviour scores. The latter score rates a ewe on its flight distance from the shepherd when newborn lamb(s) are being checked in the paddock. 95% of Moffitts Farm ewes have MBS of 1 which means the ewe stands no more than 5m apart from the shepherd when its lambs are being checked. The remaining 5% are score 2 which means they do not move more than 20m from the shepherd.
Figure: Having Moffitts Farm Wiltipoll ewes with 1 Maternal Behaviour Score means recording lamb health and weight within 12 hours of birth is a stress free procedure for the ewe, lambs and shepherds.
All our sheep are vaccinated with 5 in 1 twice and will be drenched with a triple active anthelmintic at weaning. There has been no footrot or lice experienced in the Moffitts Farm Wiltipoll flock since its establishment in 2012. All Moffitts Farm Wiltipolls have tails.
