Worm Resistance and Resilience
Our flock average is in the top 10% for post weaning FEC of all sheep in the maternal database. Our 2021 average is -60% for PFEC. We also select for growth – animals that can grow under a worm load clearly have resilience. This massively reduces the risks to animal health and production loss to worms in our high rainfall environment. Also reducing labour and chemical costs needed to manage worms.
