2016 - Ed Story, Yass - Merino Enterprise
“We join Glenfinnan White Suffolk’s to our medium frame merino ewes. They produce great early maturing lambs and we have no lambing troubles. Glenfinnan PLG are the only terminal sire genetics we use and this will be the case for many years to come. No nonsense rams that make us money, sold by no nonsense people.”
Genetic Traits
Fertility, growth, and muscling have been our focus and we aim to keep all our rams within the top 10% of ASVB within. the industry – Terminal Carcase Production. This new index for selecting rams replaces the Carcase Plus index to include eating quality traits. See here for a fact sheet on TCP.

“We have been purchasing Glenfinnan Rams for 6 years and can thoroughly recommend John and Anna Hayes Glenfinnan Rams and Prime Lamb Genetics. Our Lambs perform well and are highly sort after every year when offered for sale at the Yass XB Lamb Circuit Sale. Our tops this year averaged 38kg at 15 weeks of age and sold for $116.50. We believe the Glenfinnan Rams will enhance profitability of any XB lamb enterprise.”
