“Since we ventured into the self replacing Merino sheep breeding enterprise we have sourced Poll Merino rams from Richard and Jacquie Halliday at Callowie. Their genetics are doing an exceptional job for us and we are very happy with the results we are getting. They have very good growth rates, producing big robust sheep at maturity. We are not only cutting 6kg/head of skirted wool, but they also comb very well and our shearers are happy – we have no problems with them.

Richard’s after sale’s service is also outstanding. He classed our ewes in the beginning to tidy up the flock and still does it. It is good to deal with someone who has good genetics and a genuine passion for breeding Poll Merinos”.
